Alexander Barkov 6226043425 pcre: fixing a test failure in character_sets_dir_basic in this command:
--replace_regex /.prefix.sql.share.charsets[/\]/MYSQL_CHARSETSDIR/
select @@global.character_sets_dir;

The intention of the '[/\]' part was to replace both slash
'/' and backslash '\\', so it does not depend on the OS.

The pattern '[/\]' was actually wrong, because ']' is escaped
and should be considered as a part of the class, instead of
being a closing bracket for the class. However, due to some bug
in the old REGEX library it worked fine.

After switching to PCRE, mysqltest correctly complains about unbalaced '[]'.
The expected correct pattern should be '[/\\]'.
However, due to some bug in mysqltest, it eats consequetive baskslashes
in a strange way, so there is no a way to have to consequetive 
backslashes after unescaping.

Workaround:

using [[:punct:]] as a pattern that matches both slash and backslash,
which should be fine for this test purposes.

This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run
the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in
this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it.

Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could
actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not
conflict with it. To run the test suite in a source directory, you
must do make first.

All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please
read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the
problem:

http://kb.askmonty.org/v/reporting-bugs

If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests,
use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode,
the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run.
For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests
with an external server:

mysql-test-run --extern socket=/tmp/mysql.sock alias analyze

To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and
other relevant options.

With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back
to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some
tests cannot run with an external server.

You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new
file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test
extension. For example:

 xemacs t/test_case_name.test

 In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables,
 load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it.

 We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not
 conflict too much with existing tables).

 Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and
 end by dropping them again.  This ensures that you can run the test over
 and over again.
 
 If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your
 test case, you should create the result file as follows:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 or

 mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test

 If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and
 comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result

 mysqltest --record --database test --result-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test

 When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result
 - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should
   edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify
   that the bug is corrected in future releases.

If you want to submit your test case you can send it 
to maria-developers@lists.launchpad.com or attach it to a bug report on
http://mariadb.org/jira/.

If the test case is really big or if it contains 'not public' data,
then put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive,
add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to
ftp://ftp.askmonty.org/private and submit a report to
http://mariadb.org/jira about it.
