             Summary: GrokWebSphereParserTest is not 2017-safe
                 Key: METRON-648
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-648
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.3.0
         Environment: Travis operating on branch master
            Reporter: Matt Foley


In metron-platform/metron-parsers/src/test/java/org/apache/metron/parsers/websphere/GrokWebSphereParserTest.java eight of the test cases use a testString with log contents including a timestamp of "Apr 15" without year specified, then do an assertEquals() comparison against a hardwired epoch value that assumes a "Apr 15 2016" interpretation.

Unfortunately, now that local time is 2017, it is interpreting these logs as "Apr 15 2017", even though that is in the future from now (Jan 3 as of this writing).  This causes Travis failures without other cause.

BTW, the assertEquals() calls incorrectly give arguments in order (actual, expected) instead of the correct order (expected, actual), so the error message was confusing.  It said, e.g., {code}expected:<14[92278]448000> but was:<14[60742]448000>{code} and yet the code says {code}assertEquals(parsedJSON.get("timestamp") + "", "1460742448000");{code}  Whoever fixes this, please fix that too.
