Description

intermittent failure of ITestS3AContractRootDir.testRmEmptyRootDirNonRecursive surfacing in HADOOP-12774 test run.

This is a test which came in with HADOOP-12977, one test which deletes all children of the root dir, then verifies that they are gone. Although it tested happily during development, the sightings of two transient failures before it worked implied that it's either got some race condition with previous tests and/or maven build, or we are seeing listing inconsistency.

Issue Links

• depends upon: HADOOP-13716 Add LambdaTestUtils class for tests; fix eventual consistency problem in contract test setup
• is broken by: HADOOP-12977 s3a to handle delete("/", true) robustly
• is duplicated by: HADOOP-13772 ITestS3AContractRootDir still playing up, bug in eventually() retry logic?
