From 2a8c484b773b6d985389b6f785063d8af58ddeb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Radhakrishnan Pachyappan Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2026 13:16:27 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] test(ppl): remove invalid Spark SQL assertions from correlated-aggregate subquery tests (#5470) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The verifyPPLToSparkSQL assertions in testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInWhere and testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInSelect pin SQL that Spark (4.1) refuses to execute: SALGRADE has no SAL or EMPNO column, so those references bind to the outer EMP table as correlated outer references. The SQL serializer emits AVG(`EMP`.`SAL`) and MIN(`EMP`.`EMPNO`) inside subquery aggregate functions. Spark rejects this with UNSUPPORTED_SUBQUERY_EXPRESSION_CATEGORY.CORRELATED_REFERENCE because outer-column references in aggregate functions are not supported outside WHERE/HAVING clauses. Changes: * testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInWhere: remove verifyPPLToSparkSQL; keep verifyLogical (the logical plan correctly models the correlated semantics per SQL-92 scoping rules) * testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInSelect: same — remove verifyPPLToSparkSQL; keep verifyLogical * Remove testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInWhereMaxOut: exact duplicate of testCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInWhere (same PPL, same expected logical, same invalid SQL) The disjunctive tests (testDisjunctiveCorrelatedScalarSubqueryInWhere*) are unaffected: their COUNT() aggregate does not reference outer columns, so the generated Spark SQL is valid.
