The protocol timeout tests have been superceded by unit tests. The TEST_BACKUP_RESUME test point was incorrectly included into a number of tests, probably a copy pasto. It didn't hurt anything but it did add 200ms to each test where it appeared. Catalog and control version tests were redundant. The database version and system id tests covered the important code paths and the C code gets these values from a lookup table. Finally, fix an incomplete update to the backup.info file while munging for tests. |

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
andfull
tests in thebackup
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 thebackup
module.
Iterate All Possible Test Combinations:
