We already have in test_gsi_updatetable.py several functional tests for the Alternator feature of adding or deleting a GSI on an existing table, through the UpdateTable operation. This patch adds many more tests for various corner cases of this feature - tests developed in parallel with actually implementing that feature. All test in test_gsi_updatetable.py pass on Amazon DynamoDB but currently xfail on Alternator, due to the following issues: * #11567: Alternator: allow adding a GSI to a pre-existing table * #9424: Alternator GSIs should exclude items with empty-string key components Signed-off-by: Nadav Har'El <nyh@scylladb.com>
Scylla in-source tests.
For details on how to run the tests, see docs/dev/testing.md

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).
To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then
copy & edit its suite.ini.
