2021-11-20Require version 0.98 of Test::More for TAP testsAndrew Dunstan
This means that the subtest feature will be available for use. We expect that this change will make prairiedog go red until it is updated, but other buildfarm animals should be fine. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/f5e1d308-4e33-37a7-bdf1-f6e0c75119de@dunslane.net
2021-10-28Improve contrib/amcheck's tests for CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY.Tom Lane
Commits fdd965d07 and 3cd9c3b92 tested CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY by launching two separate pgbench runs concurrently. This was needed so that only a single client thread would run CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY, avoiding deadlock between two CICs. However, there's a better way, which is to use an advisory lock to prevent concurrent CICs. That's better in part because the test code is shorter and more readable, but mostly because it automatically scales things to launch an appropriate number of CICs relative to the number of INSERT transactions. As committed, typically half to three-quarters of the CIC transactions were pointless because the INSERT transactions had already stopped. In passing, remove background_pgbench, which was added to support these tests and isn't needed anymore. We can always put it back if we find a use for it later. Back-patch to v12; older pgbench versions lack the conditional-execution features needed for this method. Tom Lane and Andrey Borodin Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/139687.1635277318@sss.pgh.pa.us
2021-10-24Move Perl test modules to a better namespaceAndrew Dunstan
The five modules in our TAP test framework all had names in the top level namespace. This is unwise because, even though we're not exporting them to CPAN, the names can leak, for example if they are exported by the RPM build process. We therefore move the modules to the PostgreSQL::Test namespace. In the process PostgresNode is renamed to Cluster, and TestLib is renamed to Utils. PostgresVersion becomes simply PostgreSQL::Version, to avoid possible confusion about what it's the version of.
