Regression tests for recovery and replication
=============================================
This directory contains a test suite for recovery and replication.
Running the tests
=================
NOTE: You must have given the --enable-tap-tests argument to configure.
Also, to use "make installcheck", you must have built and installed
contrib/pg_prewarm, contrib/pg_stat_statements and contrib/test_decoding
in addition to the core code.
Run
make check
or
make installcheck
You can use "make installcheck" if you previously did "make install".
In that case, the code in the installation tree is tested. With
"make check", a temporary installation tree is built from the current
sources and then tested.
Either way, this test initializes, starts, and stops several test Postgres
clusters.
If you want to test WAL consistency checking, add
PG_TEST_EXTRA=wal_consistency_checking
to the "make" command. This is resource-intensive, so it's not done
by default.
See src/test/perl/README for more info about running these tests.
