If there aren't any, how might we build one?
Apparently, this wasn't as crystal clear as I thought. Let's imagine you want to test some odd combination of transactions: T1: SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION SERIALIZABLE; T1: SELECT...FOR UPDATE...; T2: UPDATE... T3: COPY... T1: ... At the moment, we have no way to test this, although with certain Perl modules, it would be pretty trivial. I seem to recall that there were some patches to get psql to help with such things, but they didn't go in. Time to revive them?
