Gabor Bota commented on HADOOP-14918:
-------------------------------------

I think a solution to this would be to create a test table on dynamo before 
running any of these tests. That table could be created in beforeclass and 
cleaned up in afterclass. 

imho the only test which could cause a problem with this approach is 
ITestDynamoDBMetadataStore#testInitialize where the table name should come from 
the S3AFileSystem#getBucket, which is the bucket name, and obviously 
destructive in a sense that [[email protected]] pointed out. For any other 
test, the name of the table could be set in the auth-keys.xml, and if not 
configured, the tests should fail in the setup phase.

[[email protected]] what do you mean by "merge all test cases into one"?

> remove the Local Dynamo DB test option

> I'm going to propose cutting out the localdynamo test option for s3guard
> * the local DDB JAR is unmaintained/lags the SDK We work with...eventually 
> there'll be differences in API.
> * as the local dynamo DB is unshaded. it complicates classpath setup for the 
> build. Remove it and there's no need to worry about versions of anything 
> other than the shaded AWS
> * it complicates test runs. Now we need to test for both localdynamo *and* 
> real dynamo
> * but we can't ignore real dynamo, because that's the one which matters
> While the local option promises to reduce test costs, really, it's just 
> adding complexity. If you are testing with s3guard, you need to have a real 
> table to test against., And with the exception of those people testing s3a 
> against non-AWS, consistent endpoints, everyone should be testing with 
> S3Guard.
> -Straightforward to remove.-
