Description

Phoenix automatically creates a mini-cluster when you run a test. For example, download the latest Phoenix, do 'mvn -DskipTests install', open UpsertBigValuesIT.java in Intellij, and press Control-Shift-F10. (It works in Eclipse too.) The test creates a mini-cluster, runs 4 test methods, and tears down the cluster. It takes 1 minute to run. No configuration whatsoever is required.

I know that this kind of automation hard to achieve, but it allows casual committers (like me) to get involved in the project without spending hours or days setting up the environment.

Since Phoenix and Kylin are both based on HBase, you could probably copy-paste their maven XML and the base classes for their tests.
