Description

Following tools are using old producer.

• ReplicationVerificationTool
• SimpleConsumerShell
• GetOffsetShell

Old producer is being marked as deprecated in 0.10. These tools should be updated to use new producer. To make sure that this update does not break existing behavior. Below is the action plan.

For each tool that uses old producer.

• Add ducktape test to establish current behavior.
• Once the tests are committed and run fine, add patch for modification of these tools. The ducktape tests added in previous step should confirm that existing behavior is still intact.
