Recently pgpool-II introduces its own regression test framework written in shell script which can create a streaming replication primary and arbitrary number of standbys in single server. The test scenarios are written in a shell script, thus is reasonably flexible. I have read through all the thread but I am not sure how to reproduce the problem reliably. If I would know it, probably I can integrate into the regression test. > I think this last issue shows that it's critical as a community to have > such a testing framework in place, otherwise we really need to halt all > work on replication until we have such a thing. Agreed. I think this is very critical for us. -- Tatsuo Ishii SRA OSS, Inc.
