The predicate-proof code in predtest.c is a bit hard to test as-is: you have to construct a query whose plan changes depending on the success of a test, and in tests that have been around for awhile, it's always possible that the plan shape is now being determined by some other factor. Our existing regression tests aren't doing real well at providing full code coverage of predtest.c, either. So, let's add a small test module that allows directly inspecting the results of predicate_implied_by() and predicate_refuted_by() for arbitrary boolean expressions. I chose the set of tests committed here in order to get reasonably complete code coverage of predtest.c just from running this test module, and to cover some cases called out as being interesting in the existing comments. We might want to add more later. But this set already shows a few cases where perhaps things could be improved. Indeed, this exercise proves that predicate_refuted_by() is buggy for the case of clause_is_check = true, though fortunately we aren't using that case anywhere yet. I'll look into doing something about that in a separate commit. For now, just memorialize the current behavior. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/5983.1520487191@sss.pgh.pa.us
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
