Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-3456:
---------------------------------------------

Which specific tests are affected? In my view, it seems odd that a unit test (unless it's a very specific one, testing the ZKInstance) should be affected, since unit tests should be written to be more narrow in their scope. It makes sense that integration tests would be affected, though. There are three solutions, I can think of:

# Add a test resource for the client configuration, and use that first in the configuration search path.
# Fix tests to only use Instance / Connector options which accept the configuration directly and bypass the search path.
# Add a system property, {{-Daccumulo.config=<some location>}}, to use explicitly which will bypass the search path, and set that in our surefire configuration.

I like option #3, generally, even beyond this issue, because it makes it easier to create service launch scripts.

> Accumulo unit tests (and probably integration tests, too) will fail if a client configuration file exists in the default location on the local filesystem {{~/.accumulo/config}}.
> Our tests shouldn't be affected by the presence of these files on the local filesystem.
