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. + +All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please +report the details to bugs@lists.mysql.com + +You can create your own test cases. To create a test case: + + cd t + vi test_case_name.test + + in the file, put a set of SQL commands that will create some tables, + load test data, run some queries to manipulate it. + + then do ./mysql-test-run -record test_case_name + and look at r/test_case_name.result - edit the result if necessary. If you + have to edit it, you have found a bug. + +To submit your test case, 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://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail +to bugs@lists.mysql.com + + + |
