[SPARK-17200][PROJECT INFRA][BUILD][SPARKR] Automate building and testing on Windows (currently SparkR only)

HyukjinKwon · shivaram · commit 78d5d4dd5ce5 · 2016-09-08T08:26:59.000-07:00
## What changes were proposed in this pull request? This PR adds the build automation on Windows with [AppVeyor](https://www.appveyor.com/) CI tool. Currently, this only runs the tests for SparkR as we have been having some issues with testing Windows-specific PRs (e.g. apache#14743 and apache#13165) and hard time to verify this. One concern is, this build is dependent on [steveloughran/winutils](https://github.com/steveloughran/winutils) for pre-built Hadoop bin package (who is a Hadoop PMC member). ## How was this patch tested? Manually, https://ci.appveyor.com/project/HyukjinKwon/spark/build/88-SPARK-17200-build-profile This takes roughly 40 mins. Some tests are already being failed and this was found in apache#14743 (comment). Author: hyukjinkwon <gurwls223@gmail.com> Closes apache#14859 from HyukjinKwon/SPARK-17200-build.

+# AppVeyor Guides
+
+Currently, SparkR on Windows is being tested with [AppVeyor](https://ci.appveyor.com). This page describes how to set up AppVeyor with Spark, how to run the build, check the status and stop the build via this tool. There is the documenation for AppVeyor [here](https://www.appveyor.com/docs). Please refer this for full details.
+
+
+### Setting up AppVeyor
+
+#### Sign up AppVeyor.

+
+- Set the Crontab expression to regularly start the build. AppVeyor uses Crontab expression, [atifaziz/NCrontab](https://github.com/atifaziz/NCrontab/wiki/Crontab-Expression). Please refer the examples [here](https://github.com/atifaziz/NCrontab/wiki/Crontab-Examples).

+
+
+### Filtering commits and Pull Requests
+
+Currently, AppVeyor is only used for SparkR. So, the build is only triggered when R codes are changed.
+
+This is specified in `.appveyor.yml` as below:
+
+```
+only_commits:
+  files:
+    - R/
+```
+
+Please refer https://www.appveyor.com/docs/how-to/filtering-commits for more details.
+
+
+### Checking the full log of the build
+
+Currently, the console in AppVeyor does not print full details. This can be manually checked. For example, AppVeyor shows the failed tests as below in console
+
+```
+Failed -------------------------------------------------------------------------
+1. Error: union on two RDDs (@test_binary_function.R#38) -----------------------
+1: textFile(sc, fileName) at C:/projects/spark/R/lib/SparkR/tests/testthat/test_binary_function.R:38
+2: callJMethod(sc, "textFile", path, getMinPartitions(sc, minPartitions))
+3: invokeJava(isStatic = FALSE, objId$id, methodName, ...)
+4: stop(readString(conn))
+```
+
+After downloading the log by clicking the log button as below:
