Hi,
Attached please find the DDL deparser testing module in the v45-0007
patch, this testing module is written by Runqi Tian in [1] with minor
modification from myself. I think we can
start adding more tests to the module now that we're getting close to
finish implementing the DDL deparser.
This testing module ddl_deparse_regress aims to achieve the following
four testing goals for the DDL deparser:
1. Test that the generated JSON blob is expected using SQL tests.
2. Test that the re-formed DDL command is expected using SQL tests.
3. Test that the re-formed DDL command has the same effect as the
original command
by comparing the results of pg_dump, using the SQL tests in 1 and 2.
4. Test that any new DDL syntax is handled by the DDL deparser by
capturing and deparsing
DDL commands ran by pg_regress.
1 and 2 is tested with SQL tests, by comparing the deparsed JSON blob
and the re-formed command.
3 is tested with TAP framework in t/001_compare_dumped_results.pl
4 is tested with TAP framework and pg_regress in 002_regress_tests.pl,
the execution is currently commented out because it will fail due
unimplemented commands in the DDL deparser.

Looks like this we don't need to manually update
copynode/equalnode/readnode/outnode
now that they are generated by ./src/backend/nodes/gen_node_support.pl.

We currently don't replicate temporary tables:
event_trigger.c
/*
* Do not generate wal log for commands whose target table is a
* temporary table.
*
* We will generate wal logs for unlogged tables so that unlogged
* tables can also be created and altered on the subscriber side. This
* makes it possible to directly replay the SET LOGGED command and the
* incoming rewrite message without creating a new table.
*/
if (relpersist == RELPERSISTENCE_TEMP)
continue;

Zheng
