             Summary: Determine how to test cqlsh in a Python 2.7 environment, including dtests
                 Key: CASSANDRA-14491
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14491
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Sub-task
         Environment:  
 
We need to test with at least two versions of Python:
 * Python 2.7
 * Python 3.x (need to determine what versions of Python 3 are available by default on Ubuntu and RHEL/CentOS)

Additionally, it is recommended to test on at least three platforms:
 * Ubuntu or other Debian derivative
 * RHEL, CentOS, or other Red Hat derivative
 * Windows (unless a consensus has formed around not testing on Windows?)
            Reporter: Patrick Bannister
             Fix For: 4.x


It appears that a consensus is forming around maintaining Python 2.7 compatibility for cqlsh. However, the dtests now run in a Python 3 environment. We need to identify an option for testing infrastructure for testing cqlsh on Python 2.7, including the dtests.

Based on experience updating the cqlsh dtests, it is strongly recommended to test in more than one environment - for example, for Linux, we should test on a Debian derivative as well as a Red Hat derivative.
