Description
Currently, we have the script for upgrading the hive schema hard coded in bin/create-test-configuration.sh. This means that Impala will break and need to be updated every time Hive's schema changes (as happened recently).
We should switch to using 'schema tool' (available in hive/bin/schematool) to automate this process and avoid breaking, eg. by calling:
hive/bin/schematool -dbType mysql -upgradeSchema
