+ Allows the use of parallel queries for testing purposes even in cases

+ appears to be safe, so that the query runs inside of a parallel worker.
+ Even when a parallel worker is not available or cannot be used,
+ operations such as starting a subtransaction that would be prohibited
+ in a parallel query context will be prohibited unless the planner
+ believes that this will cause the query to fail. If failures or

+ (or, possibly, <code class="literal">PARALLEL RESTRICTED</code>).
+ </p><p>
+ Setting this value to <code class="literal">regress</code> has all of the same effects
+ as setting it to <code class="literal">on</code> plus some additional effects that are
+ intended to facilitate automated regression testing. Normally,
+ messages from a parallel worker include a context line indicating that,
+ but a setting of <code class="literal">regress</code> suppresses this line so that the
+ output is the same as in non-parallel execution. Also,
