    Description

      MapReduce often manipulates files/permissions to ensure splits, dependencies, and other user data are consistently managed. Unit tests of these internal methods sometimes set up temporary hierarchies in a scratch directory on the local FS to exercise these modules. However, dev environment quirks (e.g., umask) can cause these tests to fail spuriously. Instead, this logic should be validated by mocking the filesystem.
