Description

I've tried to write a case for a sophisticated check...it worked so well that I've started using it and eventually created a junit rule to make it easier to reuse

Currently it takes ~15-25sec to run a test case with this framework (from which most of the time is the launch time of all kind of stuff which are needed to run a driver command).

• enable to write JUnit tests which has access to the IDriver level
• leave out the cli-driver; it sometimes causes problems
• write tests at the ql module
• it should also work from the IDE without changing anything

Note: JUnit 5 would be great for this task; but unfortunately junit5 needs maven-surefire 2.19.1 ; which causes all kinds of problems for hive devs using idea...so that's not an option.
