Thread: Regression test drivers

Is it okay now to disable the old regression test drivers and make use of
the new one throughout?  It would be advantageous if we all ran the same
thing in beta.

Sure.  Just point 'make runtest' at the new script ...

I do have one gripe about the new script: it suppresses error messages
from the DROP DATABASE step.  This is fine when the suppressed message
is "no such database", not fine when it is something else --- like, say,
"can't drop DB because it has active users".

Done.

I'm also going to remove src/test/suite (an outdated predecessor of the
current test suite).  Take a quick look at this piece of PostgreSQL
history before it's gone. :)
