I think you can do what's needed like so: --- a/src/bin/pg_dump/t/002_pg_dump.pl +++ b/src/bin/pg_dump/t/002_pg_dump.pl @@ -152,10 +152,13 @@ my %pgdump_runs = ( }, defaults_custom_format_no_seek_parallel_restore => { test_key => 'defaults', - dump_cmd => [ - 'pg_dump', '-Fc', '-Z6', '--no-sync', '--disable-seeking', + dump_cmd => ( + [ + 'pg_dump', '-Fc', '-Z6', '--no-sync', "--file=$tempdir/defaults_custom_format_no_seek_parallel_restore.dump", 'postgres', - ], + ], + "|", [ "cat" ], # disable seeking + ), Also, these are failing intermittently: t/002_pg_dump.pl .............. 1649/6758 # Failed test 'defaults_custom_format_no_seek_parallel_restore: should dump GRANT SELECT (proname ...)
