Java – Unit test Hadoop hdfs written with MiniDFSCluster

Unit test Hadoop hdfs written with MiniDFSCluster… here is a solution to the problem.

Unit test Hadoop hdfs written with MiniDFSCluster

I wrote a class that writes hadoop HDFS.
I’m using version 1.2.1 of hadoop jar.

I want to test this course.
So based on blogs like I wrote my code:

private void createSimulatedHdfs() {
    conf = new Configuration();
     100K blocksize
    conf.setLong(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_BLOCK_SIZE_KEY, 1024 * 100);
    conf.setLong(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_BLOCK_SIZE_KEY, 100);
    conf.setInt(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_BYTES_PER_CHECKSUM_KEY, 1);
    conf.setLong(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL_KEY, DFS_REPLICATION_INTERVAL);
    conf.setInt(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_NAMENODE_REPLICATION_INTERVAL_KEY, DFS_REPLICATION_INTERVAL);

try {
         simulated HDFS
        cluster = new MiniDFSCluster(conf, DATANODE_COUNT, true, null);
        cluster.waitActive();
        simulatedHdfs = cluster.getFileSystem();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        Assert.fail("Could not create simulated HDFS " + e.getMessage());
    }
    }

But an exception was encountered while running the new MiniDFSCluster:

java.lang.AssertionError: Could not create simulated HDFS Cannot run program "du": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

I

don’t have Hadoop installed in my local environment (and I’m not going to do that either).
How can I overcome this problem?

Solution

For JUnit testing, you can use the local file system without installing Hadoop and third-party utilities:

        LocalFileSystem fs = FileSystem.getLocal(new Configuration());

Also check out MUnit, a useful utility for MR testing: http://mrunit.apache.org/
