History

Robert Haas d2d3547979 Allow db.schema.table patterns, but complain about random garbage. psql, pg_dump, and pg_amcheck share code to process object name patterns like 'foo.bar' to match all tables with names starting in 'bar' that are in schemas starting with 'foo'. Before v14, any number of extra name parts were silently ignored, so a command line '\d foo.bar.baz.bletch.quux' was interpreted as '\d bletch.quux'. In v14, as a result of commit `2c8726c4b0`, we instead treated this as a request for table quux in a schema named 'foo.bar.baz.bletch'. That caused problems for people like Justin Pryzby who were accustomed to copying strings of the form db.schema.table from messages generated by PostgreSQL itself and using them as arguments to \d. Accordingly, revise things so that if an object name pattern contains more parts than we're expecting, we throw an error, unless there's exactly one extra part and it matches the current database name. That way, thisdb.myschema.mytable is accepted as meaning just myschema.mytable, but otherdb.myschema.mytable is an error, and so is some.random.garbage.myschema.mytable. Mark Dilger, per report from Justin Pryzby and discussion among various people. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20211013165426.GD27491%40telsasoft.com		2022-04-20 11:37:29 -04:00

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.

authentication/
  Tests for authentication (but see also below)

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

kerberos/
  Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption

ldap/
  Tests for LDAP-based authentication

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

subscription/
  Tests for logical replication
