Tom Lane d3cd36a133 Make to_timestamp() and to_date() range-check fields of their input.
Historically, something like to_date('2009-06-40','YYYY-MM-DD') would
return '2009-07-10' because there was no prohibition on out-of-range
month or day numbers.  This has been widely panned, and it also turns
out that Oracle throws an error in such cases.  Since these functions
are nominally Oracle-compatibility features, let's change that.

There's no particular restriction on year (modulo the fact that the
scanner may not believe that more than 4 digits are year digits,
a matter to be addressed separately if at all).  But we now check month,
day, hour, minute, second, and fractional-second fields, as well as
day-of-year and second-of-day fields if those are used.

Currently, no checks are made on ISO-8601-style week numbers or day
numbers; it's not very clear what the appropriate rules would be there,
and they're probably so little used that it's not worth sweating over.

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
