This macro was created before the String object existed so subsequent usage with String always included a lot of strPtr() wrapping. TEST_RESULT_STR_Z() had already been introduced but a wholesale replacement of TEST_RESULT_STR() was not done since the priority was on the C migration. Update all calls to (old) TEST_RESULT_STR() with one of the following variants: (new) TEST_RESULT_STR(), TEST_RESULT_STR_Z(), TEST_RESULT_Z(), TEST_RESULT_Z_STR().
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
syntheticandfulltests in thebackupmodule.
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
fulltest in thebackupmodule.
Iterate All Possible Test Combinations:
