PostgreSQL's regression tests (IMHO) are much better than MySQL's crash-me scripts.
They are less thorough in coverage, but not too bad.
Right, we are still missing this test that proves 10,000 CREATE+DROP TABLE will ensure that PostgreSQL is slower than MySQL, if you don't VACUUM the catalog ...
Here is what I suggest:
PostgreSQL has an excellent programming team. Why not try to recruit a similar testing team? I think it would strongly differentiate the tool set from similar free stuff.
Perhaps all that is needed is some sort of automated, formal reporting procedure. For example, a large test set might be created that runs a thorough regression feature list. When the test completes, a data file is emailed to some central repository, parsed, and stored in a database.
Here is what I suggest:
Get started :-)
