History

Andres Freund 0137caf273 Make regression tests less dependent on hash table order. Upcoming changes to the hash table code used, among others, for grouping and set operations will change the output order for a few queries. To make it less likely that actual bugs are hidden between regression test ordering changes, and to make the tests robust against platform dependant ordering, add ORDER BYs guaranteeing the output order. As it's possible that some of the changes expose platform dependant ordering, push this earlier, to let the buildfarm shake out potentially unstable results.

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.

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

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

thread/
  A thread-safety-testing utility used by configure
