15 The mysql_client_test program is used for testing aspects of the MySQL
16 client API that cannot be tested using mysqltest and its test language.
17 mysql_client_test_embedded is similar but used for testing the embedded
18 server. Both programs are run as part of the test suite.
19 The source code for the programs can be found in in
21 test/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 mysql_client_test supports the following options:
26 · --help, -?
28 Display a help message and exit.
30 · -b dir_name, --basedir=dir_name
32 The base directory for the tests.
34 · -t count, --count=count
36 The number of times to execute the tests.
38 · --database=db_name, -D db_name
40 The database to use.
42 · --debug[=debug_options], -#[debug_options]
44 Write a debugging log if MySQL is built with debugging support. The
46 default debug_options value is ´d:t:o,/tmp/mysql_client_test.trace'.
47 · -g option, --getopt-ll-test=option
49 Option to use for testing bugs in the getopt library.
51 · --host=host_name, -h host_name
53 Connect to the MySQL server on the given host.
55 · --password[=password], -p[password]
57 The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use the
59 short option form (-p), you cannot have a space between the option
60 and the password. If you omit the password value following the
61 --password or -p option on the command line, you are prompted for
62 one.
63 · --port=port_num, -P port_num
65 The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
67 · -A arg, --server-arg=arg
69 Argument to send to the embedded server.
71 · -T, --show-tests
73 Show all test names.
75 · --silent, -s
77 Be more silent.
79 · --socket=path, -S path
81 The socket file to use when connecting to localhost (which is the
83 default host).
84 · -c, --testcase
86 The option may disable some code when run as a mysql-test-run.pl
88 test case.
89 · --user=user_name, -u user_name
91 The MySQL username to use when connecting to the server.
93 · -v dir_name, --vardir=dir_name
95 The data directory for tests. The default is mysql-test/var.
