Description

Some features in Hive only works for certain Hadoop versions through shim. However the unit test structure is not shim-aware in that there is only one set of queries and expected outputs for all Hadoop versions. This may not be sufficient when we will have different output for different Hadoop versions. One example is CombineHiveInputFormat wich is only available from Hadoop 0.20. The plan using CombineHiveInputFormat and HiveInputFormat may be different. Another example is archival partitions (HAR) which is also only available from 0.20.
