Description

testDuplicateDeleteCommands fails occasionally with following error

Tests run: 28, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 51.226 sec <<< FAILURE! - in org.apache.falcon.resource.EntityManagerJerseyIT
testDuplicateDeleteCommands(org.apache.falcon.resource.EntityManagerJerseyIT)  Time elapsed: 0.643 sec  <<< FAILURE!

Looking at the code, I found that the test expects one of the two delete commands to fail when attempting to delete same cluster. I think the premise of the test is incorrect. If one of the two commands are expected to fail, isnt that breaking Falcon's idempotent behavior?
