[ edit - sorry, wrong JIRA ]

      was (Author: chris.douglas):
    * Instead of local blocks, each of these should probably be separate tests. All can use the same static MiniDFSCluster using TestSetup, as in TestDatamerge, TestReduceFetch, etc.
* In TC11, does it make sense to check the return value of fs.rename?
* Since it's essentially dead code in trunk, it might make more sense to make TC3 part of HADOOP-4379 instead of enabling it once it can be expected to pass

> HADOOP-1700 describes the design of supporting appends to HDFS files. This feature needs extensive testing, especially because the design explicitly analyzes many failure scenarios. A detailed test plan and test cases are needed to make this feature a reality.
