David Steele 5e55d58850 Simplify storage driver info and list functions.
The storage driver requires two list functions to be implemented, list and infoList. But the former is a subset of the latter so implementing both in every driver is wasteful. The reason both exist is that in Posix it is cheaper to get a list of names than it is to stat files to get size, time, etc. In S3 these operations are equivalent.

Introduce storageInfoLevelType to determine the amount of information required by the caller. That way Posix can work efficiently and all drivers can return only the data required which saves some bandwidth. The storageList() and storageInfoList() functions remain in the storage interface since they are useful -- the only change is simplifying the drivers with no external impact.

Note that since list() accepted an expression infoList() must now do so. Checking the expression is optional for the driver but can be used to limit results or save IO costs.

Similarly, exists() and pathExists() are just specialized forms of info() so adapt them to call info() instead.

pgBackRest
Regression, Unit, & Integration Testing

Introduction

pgBackRest uses Docker to run tests and generate documentation. Docker's light-weight virtualization provides the a good balance between proper OS emulation and performance (especially startup)

A Vagrantfile is provided that contains the complete configuration required to run pgBackRest tests and build documentation. If Vagrant is not suitable then the Vagrantfile still contains the configuration steps required to build a test system.

NOTE: this is not required for normal operation of pgBackRest.

Testing

The easiest way to start testing pgBackRest is with the included Vagrantfile.

Build Vagrant and Logon:

cd test
vagrant up
vagrant ssh

The vagrant up command may take some time as a number of Docker containers must also be built. The vagrant ssh command automatically logs onto the VM.

Run All Tests:

/backrest/test/test.pl

Run Tests for a Specific OS:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6

Run Tests for a Specific OS and Module:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup

Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, and Test:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full

Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, and Run:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --run=1

Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, and Process Max:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --process-max=4

NOTE: process-max is only applicable to the synthetic and full tests in the backup module.

Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, Process Max, and Database Version:

/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --process-max=4 --pg-version=9.4

NOTE: pg-version is only applicable to the full test in the backup module.

Iterate All Possible Test Combinations:

/backrest/test/test.pl --dry-run
