> 	Apache Spark has a wide variety of internal tests, but many of the APIs used for testing are private. To allow external developers to easily test their Spark programs we should expose a minimal set of testing APIs. The spark-testing-base project provides a set of base classes based on the existing testing code in Spark we could use to fashion a public test API for Spark.
> Since the tests for Streaming (and other components) depend on accessing Spark internals, maintaining these tests inside of Spark is a better fit than as an external component. Testing is also a core component of any project using Spark that moves beyond the proof-of-concept phase.
> The proposed API (which is very much based on Spark's current internal API) is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FBg1qWbzjW0fKt6YxzNEn7vJ7l2y1ZfeM0CSP3JJIBI/edit?usp=sharing .
> This issue can be broken up into three sub issues to expose testing utils for core, streaming, and sql.
