pg_regress has long had provisions for dynamically substituting path names into regression test scripts and result files, but use of that feature has always been a serious pain in the neck, mainly because updating the result files requires tedious manual editing. Let's get rid of that in favor of passing down the paths in environment variables. In addition to being easier to maintain, this way is capable of dealing with path names that require escaping at runtime, for example paths containing single-quote marks. (There are other stumbling blocks in the way of actually building in a path that looks like that, but removing this one seems like a good thing to do.) The key coding rule that makes that possible is to concatenate pieces of a dynamically-variable string using psql's \set command, and then use the :'variable' notation to quote and escape the string for the next level of interpretation. In hopes of making this change more transparent to "git blame", I've split it into two steps. This commit adds the necessary pg_regress.c support and changes all the *.source files in-place so that they no longer require any dynamic translation. The next commit will just "git mv" them into the regular sql/ and expected/ directories. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1655733.1639871614@sss.pgh.pa.us |

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
