Description
I checked out just the accumulo-start project. When building it, I noticed that the project's test are not standalone. They rely on the parent's conf directory. Quite frankly, I don't understand why some xml configuration file is read. I do get that the tests are confirming that Accumulo's class loader picks up changes. Could the test easily be changed so that the class loader is looking at ./lib instead of the normal classpath? Would this change make the test faster because it is reading fewer classes?
