---------------------------------

             Summary: NiFi Standard Processors should build a test jar to reduce duplication
                 Key: NIFI-5013
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5013
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Otto Fowler
            Assignee: Otto Fowler


There are some classes, notably TestServer, which are in the nifi standard processors jar which could be used by other processors, either in the project ( already 2 or 3 copies ) or in 3rd party processor/controller projects.

[link Apache Maven|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jar-plugin/examples/create-test-jar.html] details how to handle this case in two ways.

 
 #  create a test-jar from the project
 # create a new module to hold shared testing code and scope:test include it

While #2 is the preferred way, nifi should support #1 in the interim, until some discussion on the location and structure of the test module(s) and the classes that should be moved to them happens.  The scope there will be quite a bit larger.
