Good people of OVSDB, this issue is a blocking required dependency in order for me to make progress in NEUTRON-197; which now fails with the following error, which most likely is due to me not yet having an ovsdb with version bumps available:

thapar seeing this issue assigned to you, can you confirm that you are planning to work on this? This week? 
FYI https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Neon_platform_upgrade has step-by-step instructions ...
Currently busy with travel and slides stuff, should be able to squeeze out some time during transit.

Thanks! I just pulled to (to continue with NEUTRON-197), but:

I thought we were trying to run locally with skip tests? Running with findbugs only now, will address any that I find.

Only for projects you depend on (and just to be faster, and because those tests are "not your problem" when you work on another project), but for the project you migrate itself a normal full build with FindBugs and all tests and SFT and everything has to pass.

https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/76389/5..6 fixes a bunch onf stuff.
thapar but does SFT already pass for you on ovsdb? It still fails for me because odl-ovsdb-hwvtepsouthbound-rest still wants odl-jackson-2.8 (although you already changed its dependency to odl-jackson-2.9, must be a transitive dependency...)
FYI even if you skip unit tests and PockerMock test failures, we have to get SFT to pass before you can work on genius.
Please ignore re. odl-jackson-2.8 - I just did not install the latest netconf patch.
Even with updated mockito, basic mock() seems to give errors:
OvsdbDataTreeChangeListenerTest.<init>:38 » IllegalState Could not initialize ...
OvsdbMonitorCallbackTest.<init>:33 » IllegalState Could not initialize plugin:...
OvsdbMonitorCallbackTest.<init>:33 » IllegalState Could not initialize plugin:...
This is now complete, the linked patch builds with the other Neon MRI bumps.
