10 mysql_client_test [options] [test_name] ...

12 mysql_client_test_embedded [options] [test_name] ...
13
15 The mysql_client_test program is used for testing aspects of the
16 MariaDB client API that cannot be tested using mysqltest and its test
17 language. mysql_client_test_embedded is similar but used for testing
18 the embedded server. Both programs are run as part of the test suite.
19
20 The source code for the programs can be found in in
21 tests/mysql_client_test.c in a source distribution. The program serves
22 as a good source of examples illustrating how to use various features
23 of the client API.
24
25 mysql_client_test is used in a test by the same name in the main tests
26 suite of mysql-test-run.pl but may also be run directly. Unlike the
27 other programs listed here, it does not read an external description of
28 what tests to run. Instead, all tests are coded into the program, which
29 is written to cover all aspects of the C language API.
30
31 mysql_client_test supports the following options:
32
33 · --help, -?
34
35 Display a help message and exit.
36
37 · --basedir=dir_name, -b dir_name
38
39 The base directory for the tests.
40
41 · --count=count, -t count
42
43 The number of times to execute the tests.
44
45 · --database=db_name, -D db_name
46
47 The database to use.
48
49 · --debug[=debug_options], -#[debug_options]
50
51 Write a debugging log if MariaDB is built with debugging support.
52 The default debug_options value is
53 ´d:t:o,/tmp/mysql_client_test.trace´.
54
55 · --getopt-ll-test=option, -g option
56
57 Option to use for testing bugs in the getopt library.
58
59 · --host=host_name, -h host_name
60
61 Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
62
63 · --password[=password], -p[password]
64
65 The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use the
66 short option form (-p), you cannot have a space between the option
67 and the password. If you omit the password value following the
68 --password or -p option on the command line, you are prompted for
69 one.
70
71 · --port=port_num, -P port_num
72
73 The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
74
75 · --server-arg=arg, -A arg
76
77 Argument to send to the embedded server.
78
79 · --show-tests, -T
80
81 Show all test names.
82
83 · --silent, -s
84
85 Be more silent.
86
87 · --socket=path, -S path
88
89 The socket file to use when connecting to localhost (which is the
90 default host).
91
92 · --testcase, -c
93
94 The option is used when called from mysql-test-run.pl, so that
95 mysql_client_test may optionally behave in a different way than if
96 called manually, for example by skipping some tests. Currently,
97 there is no difference in behavior but the option is included in
98 order to make this possible.
99
100 · --user=user_name, -u user_name
101
102 The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
103
104 · -v dir_name, --vardir=dir_name
105
106 The data directory for tests. The default is mysql-test/var.
