The .experimental files in this directory contain names of test cases that
|
||
|
|
are still in development and whose failures should be considered expected,
|
||
|
|
instead of regressions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These files are to be used with the --experimental option of
|
||
|
|
mysql-test-run.pl. Please look at its help screen for usage information.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The syntax is as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) One line per test case.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) Empty lines and lines starting with a hash (#) are ignored.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) If any other line contains a blank followed by a hash (#), the hash
|
||
|
|
and any subsequent characters are ignored.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4) The full test case name including the suite and execution mode
|
||
|
|
may be specified, for example:
|
||
|
|
main.alias 'row' # bug#00000
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4b) Now, combinations will also be covered if only the test name is
|
||
|
|
specified, for example:
|
||
|
|
rpl.rpl_ps # Covers 'row', 'mix' and 'stmt'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5) As an exception to item 4, the last character of the test case
|
||
|
|
specification may be an asterisk (*). In that case, all test cases that
|
||
|
|
start with the same characters up to the last letter before the asterisk
|
||
|
|
are considered experimental:
|
||
|
|
main.a* # get rid of main.alias, main.alibaba and main.agliolio
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6) Optionally, the test case may be followed by one or more platform
|
||
|
|
qualifiers beginning with @ or @!. The test will then be considered
|
||
|
|
experimental only/except on that platform. Basic OS names as
|
||
|
|
reported by $^O in Perl, or 'windows' are supported, this includes
|
||
|
|
solaris, linux, windows, aix, darwin, ... Example:
|
||
|
|
main.alias @aix @windows # Fails on those
