stack commented on HBASE-3555:
------------------------------

I'd suggest you lads bring this up on the mailing list (Discussion inside issues is seen by a few only).   If no objection, a patch and we're up on TestNG.

> I have been messing with TestNG and I think we should switch to it.  It is very similar to junit 4 with annotations, but it supports several features which would allow our build to become slightly more sane:
> - test groups allow us to separate slow/fast tests from each other
> - surefire support for running specific groups would allow 'check in tests' vs 'hudson/integration tests' (ie fast/slow)
> - it supports all the features of junit 4, plus it is VERY similar, making for the transition easy.
> - they have assertEquals(byte[],byte[]) (!)
