The prior message stated that there had been a buffer overrun which is not true since the code prevents that. In fact, this message means the parameter buffer filled while building the parameter list. Rather than display a partial list we output this message instead. Also remove !!! which by convention we use as a marker for code that needs attention before it can be committed to master. |

pgBackRest
Regression, Unit, & Integration Testing
Introduction
pgBackRest uses Docker to run tests and generate documentation. Docker's light-weight virualization 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 that 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 that 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 that pg-version is only applicable to the full
test in the backup
module.
Iterate All Possible Test Combinations:
/backrest/test/test.pl --dry-run
