NAME¶
mysqltest - program to run test casesSYNOPSIS¶
mysqltest [options]
[db_name ]
mysqltest_embedded [options]
[ db_name]
DESCRIPTION¶
The mysqltest program runs a test case against a MariaDB server and optionally compares the output with a result file. This program reads input written in a special test language. Typically, you invoke mysqltest via mysql-test-run.pl rather than invoking it directly. mysqltest_embedded is similar but is built with support for the libmysqld embedded server. Features of mysqltest:•Can send SQL statements to MariaDB servers for
execution
•Can execute external shell commands
•Can test whether the result from an SQL statement
or shell command is as expected
•Can connect to one or more standalone
mysqld servers and switch between connections
•Can connect to an embedded server (libmysqld), if
MariaDB is compiled with support for libmysqld. (In this case, the executable
is named mysqltest_embedded rather than mysqltest.)
By default, mysqltest reads the test case on the standard input. To run
mysqltest this way, you normally invoke it like this:
shell> mysqltest [options] [db_name] < test_file
•--help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
•--basedir=dir_name, -b
dir_name
The base directory for tests.
•--character-sets-dir=path
The directory where character sets are installed.
•--compress, -C
Compress all information sent between the client and the server if both support
compression.
•--connect-timeout=num
This can be used to set the MYSQL_OPT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT parameter of mysql_options
to change the number of seconds before an unsuccessful connection attempt
times out.
•--continue-on-error
Continue test even if we got an error. This is mostly useful when testing a
storage engine to see what from a test file it can execute, or to find all
syntax errors in a newly created big test file.
•--cursor-protocol
Use cursors for prepared statements.
•--database=db_name, -D
db_name
The default database to use.
•--debug[=debug_options],
-#[debug_options]
Write a debugging log if MariaDB is built with debugging support. The default
debug_options value is
´d:t:S:i:O,/tmp/mysqltest.trace´.
•--debug-check
Print some debugging information when the program exits.
•--debug-info
Print debugging information and memory and CPU usage statistics when the program
exits.
•--host=host_name, -h
host_name
Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
•--logdir=dir_name
The directory to use for log files.
•--mark-progress
Write the line number and elapsed time to test_file.progress.
•--max-connect-retries=num
The maximum number of connection attempts when connecting to server.
•--max-connections=num
The maximum number of simultaneous server connections per client (that is, per
test). If not set, the maximum is 128. Minimum allowed limit is 8, maximum is
5120.
•--no-defaults
Do not read default options from any option files. If used, this must be the
first option.
•--non-blocking-api
Use the non-blocking client API for communication.
•--overlay-dir=dir_name
Overlay directory.
•--password[=password],
-p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use the short option
form ( -p), you cannot have a space between the option and the
password. If you omit the password value following the
--password or -p option on the command line, you are prompted
for one.
•--plugin-dir=dir_name
Directory for client-side plugins.
•--port=port_num, -P
port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection or 0 for default to, in order
of preference, my.cnf, $MYSQL_TCP_PORT, /etc/services, built-in default
(3306).
•--prologue=name
Include the contents of the given file before processing the contents of the
test file. The included file should have the same format as other
mysqltest test files. This option has the same effect as putting a
--source file_name command as the first line of the test file.
•--protocol={TCP|SOCKET|PIPE|MEMORY}
The connection protocol to use for connecting to the server. It is useful when
the other connection parameters normally would cause a protocol to be used
other than the one you want.
•--ps-protocol
Use the prepared-statement protocol for communication.
•--quiet
Suppress all normal output. This is a synonym for --silent.
•--record, -r
Record the output that results from running the test file into the file named by
the --result-file option, if that option is given. It is an error to
use this option without also using --result-file.
•--result-file=file_name,
-R file_name
This option specifies the file for test case expected results.
--result-file, together with --record, determines how
mysqltest treats the test actual and expected results for a test case:
•If the test produces no results, mysqltest
exits with an error message to that effect, unless --result-file is
given and the named file is an empty file.
•Otherwise, if --result-file is not given,
mysqltest sends test results to the standard output.
•With --result-file but not
--record, mysqltest reads the expected results from the given
file and compares them with the actual results. If the results do not match,
mysqltest writes a .reject file in the same directory as the result
file, outputs a diff of the two files, and exits with an error.
•With both --result-file and
--record, mysqltest updates the given file by writing the actual
test results to it.
•--result-format-version=#
Version of the result file format to use.
•--server-arg=value, -A
value
Pass the argument as an argument to the embedded server. For example,
--server-arg=--tmpdir=/tmp or --server-arg=--core. Up to 64
arguments can be given.
•--server-file=file_name,
-F file_name
Read arguments for the embedded server from the given file. The file should
contain one argument per line.
•--silent, -s
Suppress all normal output.
•--sleep=num, -T
num
Cause all sleep commands in the test case file to sleep num seconds. This
option does not affect real_sleep commands.
An option value of 0 can be used, which effectively disables sleep commands in
the test case.
•--socket=path, -S
path
The socket file to use when connecting to localhost (which is the default
host).
•--sp-protocol
Execute DML statements within a stored procedure. For every DML statement,
mysqltest creates and invokes a stored procedure that executes the
statement rather than executing the statement directly.
•--ssl
Enable SSL for connection (automatically enabled with other flags). Disable with
--skip-ssl.
•--ssl-ca=name
CA file in PEM format (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-capath=name
CA directory (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-cert=name
X509 cert in PEM format (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-cipher=name
SSL cipher to use (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-key=name
X509 key in PEM format (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-crl=name
Certificate revocation list (check OpenSSL docs, implies --ssl).
•--ssl-crlpath=name
Certificate revocation list path (check OpenSSL docs, implies
--ssl).
•--ssl-verify-server-cert
Verify server's "Common Name" in its cert against hostname used when
connecting. This option is disabled by default.
•--suite-dir=dir_name
Suite directory.
•--tail-lines=nn
Specify how many lines of the result to include in the output if the test fails
because an SQL statement fails. The default is 0, meaning no lines of result
printed.
•--test-file=file_name, -x
file_name
Read test input from this file. The default is to read from the standard
input.
•--timer-file=file_name,
-m file_name
If given, the number of microseconds spent running the test will be written to
this file. This is used by mysql-test-run.pl for its reporting.
•--tmpdir=dir_name, -t
dir_name
The temporary directory where socket files are created.
•--user=user_name, -u
user_name
The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
•--verbose, -v
Verbose mode. Print out more information about what the program does.
•--version, -V
Display version information and exit.
•--view-protocol
Every SELECT statement is wrapped inside a view.
