Transitive dependencies can be confusing and hard to deal with when
conflicts arise between them. This change removes transitive
dependencies from elasticsearch, and forces any dependency conflicts to
be resolved manually, instead of automatically by gradle.
closes#14627
`AbstractLegacyBlobContainer` was kept for historical reasons (see #13434).
We can migrate Azure and S3 repositories to use the new methods added in #13434 so we can remove `AbstractLegacyBlobContainer` class.
This change removes the leftover pom files. A couple files were left for
reference, namely in qa tests that have not yet been migrated (vagrant
and multinode). The deb and rpm assemblies also still exist for
reference when finishing their setup in gradle.
See #13930
There are three ways `@Test` was used. Way one:
```java
@Test
public void flubTheBlort() {
```
This way was always replaced with:
```java
public void testFlubTheBlort() {
```
Or, maybe with a better method name if I was feeling generous.
Way two:
```java
@Test(throws=IllegalArgumentException.class)
public void testFoo() {
methodThatThrows();
}
```
This way of using `@Test` is actually pretty OK, but to get the tools to ban
`@Test` entirely it can't be used. Instead:
```java
public void testFoo() {
try {
methodThatThrows();
fail("Expected IllegalArgumentException");
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e ) {
assertThat(e.getMessage(), containsString("something"));
}
}
```
This is longer but tests more than the old ways and is much more precise.
Compare:
```java
@Test(throws=IllegalArgumentException.class)
public void testFoo() {
some();
copy();
and();
pasted();
methodThatThrows();
code(); // <---- This was left here by mistake and is never called
}
```
to:
```java
@Test(throws=IllegalArgumentException.class)
public void testFoo() {
some();
copy();
and();
pasted();
try {
methodThatThrows();
fail("Expected IllegalArgumentException");
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e ) {
assertThat(e.getMessage(), containsString("something"));
}
}
```
The final use of test is:
```java
@Test(timeout=1000)
public void testFoo() {
methodThatWasSlow();
}
```
This is the most insidious use of `@Test` because its tempting but tragically
flawed. Its flaws are:
1. Hard and fast timeouts can look like they are asserting that something is
faster and even do an ok job of it when you compare the timings on the same
machine but as soon as you take them to another machine they start to be
invalid. On a slow VM both the new and old methods fail. On a super-fast
machine the slower and faster ways succeed.
2. Tests often contain slow `assert` calls so the performance of tests isn't
sure to predict the performance of non-test code.
3. These timeouts are rude to debuggers because the test just drops out from
under it after the timeout.
Confusingly, timeouts are useful in tests because it'd be rude for a broken
test to cause CI to abort the whole build after it hits a global timeout. But
those timeouts should be very very long "backstop" timeouts and aren't useful
assertions about speed.
For all its flaws `@Test(timeout=1000)` doesn't have a good replacement __in__
__tests__. Nightly benchmarks like http://benchmarks.elasticsearch.org/ are
useful here because they run on the same machine but they aren't quick to check
and it takes lots of time to figure out the regressions. Sometimes its useful
to compare dueling implementations but that requires keeping both
implementations around. All and all we don't have a satisfactory answer to the
question "what do you replace `@Test(timeout=1000)`" with. So we handle each
occurrence on a case by case basis.
For files with `@Test` this also:
1. Removes excess blank lines. They don't help anything.
2. Removes underscores from method names. Those would fail any code style
checks we ever care to run and don't add to readability. Since I did this manually
I didn't do it consistently.
3. Make sure all test method names start with `test`. Some used to end in `Test` or start
with `verify` or `check` and they were picked up using the annotation. Without the
annotation they always need to start with `test`.
4. Organizes imports using the rules we generate for Eclipse. For the most part
this just removes `*` imports which is a win all on its own. It was "required"
to quickly remove `@Test`.
5. Removes unneeded casts. This is just a setting I have enabled in Eclipse and
forgot to turn off before I did this work. It probably isn't hurting anything.
6. Removes trailing whitespace. Again, another Eclipse setting I forgot to turn
off that doesn't hurt anything. Hopefully.
7. Swaps some tests override superclass tests to make them empty with
`assumeTrue` so that the reasoning for the skips is logged in the test run and
it doesn't "look like" that thing is being tested when it isn't.
8. Adds an oxford comma to an error message.
The total test count doesn't change. I know. I counted.
```bash
git checkout master && mvn clean && mvn install | tee with_test
git no_test_annotation master && mvn clean && mvn install | tee not_test
grep 'Tests summary' with_test > with_test_summary
grep 'Tests summary' not_test > not_test_summary
diff with_test_summary not_test_summary
```
These differ somewhat because some tests are skipped based on the random seed.
The total shouldn't differ. But it does!
```
1c1
< [INFO] Tests summary: 564 suites (1 ignored), 3171 tests, 31 ignored (31 assumptions)
---
> [INFO] Tests summary: 564 suites (1 ignored), 3167 tests, 17 ignored (17 assumptions)
```
These are the core unit tests. So we dig further:
```bash
cat with_test | perl -pe 's/\n// if /^Suite/;s/.*\n// if /IGNOR/;s/.*\n// if /Assumption #/;s/.*\n// if /HEARTBEAT/;s/Completed .+?,//' | grep Suite > with_test_suites
cat not_test | perl -pe 's/\n// if /^Suite/;s/.*\n// if /IGNOR/;s/.*\n// if /Assumption #/;s/.*\n// if /HEARTBEAT/;s/Completed .+?,//' | grep Suite > not_test_suites
diff <(sort with_test_suites) <(sort not_test_suites)
```
The four tests with lower test numbers are all extend `AbstractQueryTestCase`
and all have a method that looks like this:
```java
@Override
public void testToQuery() throws IOException {
assumeTrue("test runs only when at least a type is registered", getCurrentTypes().length > 0);
super.testToQuery();
}
```
It looks like this method was being double counted on master and isn't anymore.

* Add ability for plugins to declare additional permissions with a custom plugin-security.policy file and corresponding AccessController logic. See the plugin author's guide for more information.
* Add warning messages to users for extra plugin permissions in bin/plugin.
* When bin/plugin is run interactively (stdin is a controlling terminal and -b/--batch not supplied), require user confirmation.
* Improve unit test and IDE support for plugins with additional permissions by exposing plugin's metadata as a maven test resource.

Add SpecialPermission to guard exceptions to security policy.
In some cases (e.g. buggy cloud libraries, scripting engines), we must
grant dangerous permissions to contained cases. Those AccessController blocks
are dangerous, since they truncate the stack, and can allow privilege escalation.
This PR adds a simple permission to check before each one, so that unprivileged code
like groovy scripts, can't do anything they shouldn't be allowed to do otherwise.
We moved a lot of repositories into elasticsearch, but in their new
location they retained their LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt files. These are
all the same, and having the license and notice and the root of the
repository should be sufficient.
Plugin tests require having rest-api tests, and currently copy that spec
from a directory in the root of the plugin source into the test
resources. This change moves the rest-api-spec dir into test resources
so it is like any other test resources. It also removes unnecessary
configuration for resources from the shared plugin pom.
When running a RestIT test from the IDE, you actually start an internal node which does not automatically load the plugin you would like to test.
We need to add:
```java
@Override
protected Collection<Class<? extends Plugin>> nodePlugins() {
return pluginList(PLUGIN_HERE.class);
}
```
Everything works fine when running from maven because each test basically:
* installs elasticsearch
* installs one plugin
* starts elasticsearch with this plugin loaded
* runs the test
Note that this PR only fixes the fact we run an internal cluster with the expected plugin.
Cloud tests will still fail when run from the IDE because is such a case you actually start an internal node with many mock plugins.
And REST test suite for cloud plugins basically checks if the plugin is running by checking the output of NodesInfo API.
And we check:
```yml
- match: { nodes.$master.plugins.0.name: cloud-azure }
- match: { nodes.$master.plugins.0.jvm: true }
```
But in that case, this condition is certainly false as we started also `mock-transport-service`, `mock-index-store`, `mock-engine-factory`, `node-mocks`, `asserting-local-transport`, `mock-search-service`.
Closes#13479
Instead of asking blob store to create output for posting blob content, this change provides that content of the blob to the blob store for writing. This will significantly simplify the interface for S3 and Azure plugins.
Until now we had a cloud-aws plugin which is providing 2 disctinct features:
* discovery on EC2
* snapshot/restore on S3
This commit splits the plugin by feature so people can use either one or the other or both features.
Doc is updated accordingly.
