Summary: Cache and share the downloaded external distribution (e.g. Kafka) in E2E tests
Key: FLINK-13730
URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13730 Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Connectors / Kafka, Tests
Reporter: Jark Wu
We can try to cache and share the downloaded Kafka distribution among multiple e2e test runs.
There is a PR by Chesnay Schepler (
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/7605) which conceptually does it.
This will help to reduce a lot of e2e testing time. And it would be very help for Chinese developers to verify e2e locally, because it's very unstable and almost impossible to download them in China.
We can do the same thing for other external distributions, for example, elasticsearch.
