The extensions +here aren't intended to be installed in a production server and aren't suitable +for "real work". + +Furthermore, while you can do "make install" and "make installcheck" in +this directory or its children, it is NOT ADVISABLE to do so with a server +containing valuable data. Some of these tests may have undesirable +side-effects on roles or other global objects within the tested server. +"make installcheck-world" at the top level does not recurse into this +directory. + +Most extensions have their own pg_regress tests or isolationtester specs. Some +are also used by tests elsewhere in the tree. + +If you're adding new hooks or other functionality exposed as C-level API this +is where to add the tests for it. |
