<title>Regression Tests</title>
You can also do this in a subdirectory of <filename>contrib</> to run
the tests for just one module.

+ The source distribution also contains regression tests of the static
+ behaviour of Hot Standby. These tests require a running primary server
+ and a running standby server that is accepting new WAL changes from the
+ primary using either file-based log shipping or streaming replication.
+ Those servers are not automatically created for you, nor is the setup
+ documented here. Please check the various sections of the docs already
+ devoted to the required commands and related issues.

+ First create a database called "regression" on the primary.
+<screen>
+psql -h primary -c "CREATE DATABASE regression"
+</screen>
+ Next, run a preparatory script on the primary in the regression database:
+ <filename>src/test/regress/sql/hs_primary_setup.sql</filename>, and
+ allow for the changes to propagate to the standby, for example
+<screen>
+psql -h primary -f src/test/regress/sql/hs_primary_setup.sql regression
+</screen>
+ Now confirm that the default connection for the tester is the standby
+ server under test and then run standbycheck from the regression
+ directory.
+<screen>
+cd src/test/regress
+gmake standbycheck
+</screen>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Some extreme behaviours can also be generated on the primary using the
+ script: <filename>src/test/regress/sql/hs_primary_extremes.sql</filename>
+ to allow the behaviour of the standby to be tested.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Additional automated testing may be available in later releases.
