Yeah, that was kind of what I thought. > "For more information on Postgres's TAP tests, see the docs: > https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/regress-tap.html"; This doesn't seem tremendously useful, as we'd still have to duplicate it everywhere. A quick search finds these TAP suites that have associated README files: $ for ft in `find . -name t` > do > d=`dirname $ft` > if [ -e $d/README ]; then > echo $d/README > fi > done ./src/bin/pg_amcheck/README ./src/test/authentication/README ./src/test/kerberos/README ./src/test/ldap/README ./src/test/modules/test_misc/README ./src/test/modules/test_pg_dump/README ./src/test/modules/libpq_pipeline/README ./src/test/recovery/README ./src/test/ssl/README ./src/test/subscription/README The ones under modules/ can probably be excluded, as they're not there to provide usage directions; but that still leaves us with seven to touch. I'd be inclined to add just one sentence to the boilerplate text these use, along the lines of "If the tests fail, examining the logs left behind in tmp_check/log/ may be helpful." regards, tom lane
