We've discussed it a bit in the past with regard to testing replication and 
such. I think the consensus was, failing support for concurrent sessions in 
psql, to use a Perl script to control multiple psql sessions and perhaps use 
Test::More to do the testing. Although pgTAP might make sense, too, if the 
tests ought to run in the database.

Best,
