Description

After commit: https://github.com/apache/sqoop/commit/3ba01bcf8320c5d8b4a9c6085b3bdf9afd9bf70d

build is broken on JDK7 at:

[ERROR] /test/src/test/java/org/apache/sqoop/integration/connector/jdbc/generic/AllTypesTest.java:[70,6] error: reference to insertRow is ambiguous, both method insertRow(Object...) in ConnectorTestCase and method insertRow(boolean,Object...) in ConnectorTestCase match
[ERROR] /test/src/test/java/org/apache/sqoop/integration/connector/jdbc/generic/AllTypesTest.java:[143,6] error: reference to assertRow is ambiguous, both method assertRow(Object[],Object...) in ConnectorTestCase and method assertRow(Object[],boolean,Object...) in ConnectorTestCase match

Apparently JDK7 is boxing basic type value (false) to Boolean and confusing the two methods available insertRows methods in ConnectorTestCase.
