Agreed. Also, patch review becomes materially smoother when the author includes comprehensive tests. When a usage I wish to verify already appears in the submitted tests, that saves time. I respect the desire to keep regular "make check" lean, but not if it means comprehensive tests get written to be buried in the mailing list archives or never submitted at all. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
