Yes, I understand that there are some dependencies between test scripts
and most of the scripts are not repeatable, but the tablespace test is.
I can run:
TESTS="$(printf "tablespace %.0s" `seq 10`)" make check-tests
and the test executes fine:
============== running regression test queries ==============
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
test tablespace ... ok
============== shutting down postmaster ==============
============== removing temporary instance ==============
======================
All 10 tests passed.
======================
So the issue is not with repetition itself but with the random change of
the SELECT results.
Best regards,
Alexander
