-------------------------------------
not sure when this was implemented, but it's already possible in qtests
> Support compaction in qtests

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: László Bodor
> Assignee: László Bodor
> Priority: Major

> From time to time I get back to a scenario where I want to investigate a
> compaction related issue and I have a complete repro SQL script for that. In
> this case, I would prefer a qtest in which I can run manually triggered
> compaction instead of setting up other kinds of unit tests.
> This can be quite challenging, but the most important is that a compactor
> environment (compactor threads, queue, etc.) cannot be set on the fly in the
> scripts. Fortunately, we already have some preprocessed meta stuff in qtest
> which can run in advance, it worth try that for this purpose.
