Hi,
We've done that in the libdbi-drivers package. The way to do it is like
this:
-- SCRIPT START --
#!/bin/sh
MYTEMP_DIR=`mktemp -d`
ME=`whoami`
mysql_install_db --no-defaults --datadir=${MYTEMP_DIR} --force
--skip-name-resolve --user=${ME}
/usr/sbin/mysqld --no-defaults --skip-grant --user=${ME}
--socket=${MYTEMP_DIR}/mysql.sock --datadir=${MYTEMP_DIR}
--skip-networking &
export MYSQL_UNIX_PORT=${MYTEMP_DIR}/mysql.sock
echo -n pinging mysqld.
attempts=0
while ! /usr/bin/mysqladmin --socket=${MYTEMP_DIR}/mysql.sock ping ; do
sleep 3
attempts=$((attempts+1))
if [ ${attempts} -gt 10 ] ; then
echo "skipping test, mysql server could not be contacted
after 30 seconds"
exit 0
fi
done
... DO_YOUR_TESTS_HERE ...
/usr/bin/mysqladmin --socket=${MYTEMP_DIR}/mysql.sock shutdown
rm -rf ${MYTEMP_DIR}
-- SCRIPT END --
Note that by default, you'll have login root with empty password
available, and it's up to you to create users if you need.
Also, remember to use the BUILD_OPTIONS to have the test suite
be disabled in case we don't want to run them. That's a Debian
policy requirement. So you'll also need something like that in
your debian/rules:
ifeq (,$(findstring nocheck, $(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
override_dh_auto_test:
./run_tests.sh
endif
Good luck,
Thomas
