A commonly requested use-case is to have a role who can run an unfettered pg_dump without having to explicitly GRANT that user access to all tables, schemas, et al, without that role being a superuser. This address that by adding a "pg_read_all_data" role which implicitly gives any member of this role SELECT rights on all tables, views and sequences, and USAGE rights on all schemas. As there may be cases where it's also useful to have a role who has write access to all objects, pg_write_all_data is also introduced and gives users implicit INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE rights on all tables, views and sequences. These roles can not be logged into directly but instead should be GRANT'd to a role which is able to log in. As noted in the documentation, if RLS is being used then an administrator may (or may not) wish to set BYPASSRLS on the login role which these predefined roles are GRANT'd to.

PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see which tests get run automatically. authentication/ Tests for authentication (but see also below) examples/ Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via "make check" isolation/ Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level kerberos/ Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption ldap/ Tests for LDAP-based authentication locale/ Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc mb/ Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support modules/ Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable for installing in production databases perl/ Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests recovery/ Test suite for recovery and replication regress/ PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress ssl/ Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling subscription/ Tests for logical replication
