Review Comment:
   I think it's better to remove these assertions than to update them. These 
cases are covered by core tests for schema updates, which is the canonical 
place to test behavior. Flink and Spark tests should validate the integration 
(that the ADD COLUMN is passed) rather than the behavior (that NOT NULL is 
rejected).
