Please see my comments on the LOCK tests related to these points and update accordingly. +BEGIN TRANSACTION; +INVALID_COMMAND; +ERROR: syntax error at or near "INVALID_COMMAND" +LINE 1: INVALID_COMMAND; + ^ +SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION regress_role_var1; +ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block We have a test for this error message in the "transactions" test, so I don't think we need another one here. This error is thrown at a very high level in e.g. exec_simple_query. The only dependence on the particular command is in IsTransactionExitStmt() - IOW, there's nothing special about SET, and if we're going to test this for SET ROLE and SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION, then why not for every single command we have? +SET DATESTYLE = ISO, SQL; +ERROR: invalid value for parameter "DateStyle": "iso, sql" +DETAIL: Conflicting "datestyle" specifications. +SET DATESTYLE = SQL, ISO; +ERROR: invalid value for parameter "DateStyle": "sql, iso" +DETAIL: Conflicting "datestyle" specifications. +SET DATESTYLE = ISO, POSTGRES; +ERROR: invalid value for parameter "DateStyle": "iso, postgres" +DETAIL: Conflicting "datestyle" specifications. +SET DATESTYLE = POSTGRES, ISO; ...et cetera, ad nauseum. While there's something to be said for completeness, the chances that future maintainers of this code will update these regression tests with all the new permutations every time new options are added seem low. I recommend testing a representative sample of three of these, or so, and skipping the rest. +SET TIME ZONE INTERVAL '1 month +05:30' HOUR TO MINUTE; +ERROR: invalid value for parameter "TimeZone": "INTERVAL '@ 1 mon 5 hours 30 mins'" Wow, what a terrible error message. This is not your patch's fault, but maybe we should look at improving that? I am inclined to think that these tests should be split up and moved into the files where similar things are being tested already. The SET TIME ZONE tests probably belong in horology.sql, the SET DATESTYLE tests with the related tests in interval.sql, and much of the other stuff in transactions.sql. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
