testsuite funcs_1
1. Fix the following bugs
Bug#30440 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail: Character sets depend on configuration
Solution: Test variants charset_collation_* adjusted to different builds
Bug#32603 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail in "community" tree: "PROFILING" table
Solution: Excluding "PROFILING" table from queries
Bug#33654 "slow log" is missing a line
Solution: Unify the content of the fields TABLES.TABLE_ROWS and
STATISTICS.CARDINALITY within result sets
Bug#34532 Some funcs_1 tests do not clean up at end of testing
Solution: DROP objects/reset global server variables modified during testing
+ let tests missing implementation end before loading of tables
Bug#31421 funcs_1: ndb__datadict fails, discrepancy between scripts and expected results
Solution: Cut <engine>__datadict tests into smaller tests + generate new results.
Bug#33599 INFORMATION_SCHEMA.STATISTICS got a new column INDEX_COMMENT: tests fail (2)
Generation of new results during post merge fix
Bug#33600 CHARACTER_OCTET_LENGTH is now CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH * 4
Generation of new results during post merge fix
Bug#33631 Platform-specific replace of CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH broken by 4-byte encoding
Generation of new results during post merge fix
+ removal of platform-specific replace routine (no more needed)
2. Restructure the tests
- Test not more than one INFORMATION_SCHEMA view per testscript
- Separate tests of I_S view layout+functionality from content related to the
all time existing databases "information_schema", "mysql" and "test"
- Avoid storage engine related variants of tests which are not sensible to
storage engines at all.
3. Reimplement or add some subtests + cleanup
There is a some probability that even the reviewed changeset
- does not fix all bugs from above or
- contains new bugs which show up on some platforms <> Linux or on one of
the various build types
4. The changeset contains fixes according to
- one code review
- minor bugs within testing code found after code review (accepted by reviewer)
- problems found during tests with 5.0.56 in build environment
Bug#31567 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail:
Reference protocol is non-standard build
Bug#30418 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail:
Dependency on the host name for ordering
Modifications:
1. The standard builds (build team) do not contain
the collation 'utf8_general_cs'.
The common developer builds (compuile-....-max)
contain this collation.
Solution fitting to both build variants:
Exclude the collation 'utf8_general_cs' from
result sets.
2. Use mysqltest builtin sorting of result set for
the statement where the hostname affects the
row order.
Report claims that Seconds_behind_master behaves unexpectedly.
Code analysis shows that there is an evident flaw in that treating of FormatDescription event is wrong
so that after FLUSH LOGS on slave the Seconds_behind_master's calculation slips and incorrect
value can be reported to SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
Even worse is that the gap between the correct and incorrect deltas grows with time.
Fixed with prohibiting changes to rpl->last_master_timestamp by artifical events (any kind of).
suggestion as comments is added how to fight with lack of info on the slave side by means of
new heartbeat feature coming.
The test can not be done ealily fully determistic.
Bug#30418 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail: Dependency on the host name
for ordering
Bug#30420 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail: Release build has help tables loaded
Bug#30438 "{memory,myisam,ndb}__datadict" tests fail: Use "InnoDB" without checking
Bug#30440 "datadict" tests (all engines) fail: Character sets depend on configuration
Attention: Only the build team can check if Bug#30440 is really fixed.
- When creating an index for the sort, the number of rows plus 1 is used
to allocate a buffer. In this test case, the number of rows 4294967295
is the max value of an unsigned integer, so when 1 was added to it, a
buffer of size 0 was allocated causing the crash.
- Create new test suite for this bug's test suite as per QA.
- validated current result files
- forced order by and removed time stamps
removed a_version files (since do not make sense now when suite is in the main tree)
Note: datadict tests still fail as a result of regression bug 28181 in 5.0.42 (discovered
while performing this update) - tests should run clean once bug is fixed
I have put the tests into a separate "suite", the first one actually.
Currently this can only be run by the Perl version of mysql-test-run
that is not quite finished. It should, or at least will, be able to
be run with the line
./mysql-test-run.pl --suite=jp
