Interface update for 7.3

From

I have worked on several gborg projects migrated from our CVS tree, and
all but one have new packaged releases, ready for 7.3:
libpq++pgeasypgperl

I am working with David Wheeler on DBD:pg and hope to have a release
packaged up tomorrow.

Bruce, David,

I'm updating all the test scripts to properly use the standard DBI
testing env vars, e.g. DBI_DSN, DBI_USER, DBI_PASS, and to use
Test::More.

I've finished and committed half of them, I'll let you know when I'm
done.

Cheers,
jas.

Ok, all done. All tests now use standard DBI vars and Test::More.

All tests pass.

David, could you take a look at 11quoting.t? I'm pretty sure you wrote
this test (didn't you?). I converted the array of tests to a hash
table so that I could give them names. However, I could only give the
tests names like 'one', 'two', etc. Perhaps you can think of something
more descriptive.

The names are a really nice feature of Test::More. When you run the
test files individually it prints out:
 1..8 ok 1 - connect with transaction ok 2 - three: \ -> expected '\134' got '\134' ok 3 - five: \'?: -> expected
'\134\047?:'got '\134\047?:' ok 4 - one: ' -> expected '\047' got '\047' ok 5 - two: '' -> expected '\047\047' got
'\047\047'ok 6 - four: \' -> expected '\134\047' got '\134\047' ok 7 - SQL_BINARY ok 8 - disconnect
 

So that you can find a test by name when it fails.

Cheers,
jas.

I love Test::More and use it for all of my projects, but I'm not sure 
we should use it for DBD::Pg, if for no other reason than that DBI 
doesn't use it. Test.pm will be adequate.

OTOH, if everybody says, screw it, use Test::More, then I'm all for it.

Note: Removed pgsql-hackers and added dbi-dev to recipients as that 
seems more appropriate for the continuation of this thread.

No, I didn't write it. I just added the test to make sure that 
SQL_BINARY threw an exception.

Uh, what happened to t/10transition.t?

Recent versions of Test.pm support names, too, IIRC.

I deleted it. Perhaps I was mistaken, but the tests it contained were
all duplicates of things in t/08txn.t

Was I mistaken? Is there some reason to keep it?

Cheers,
jas.

Oh, okay.

Dunno. I never looked at 'em.

Would you update MANIFEST when you do stuff like this in the future?

Also, what's the story with the ChangeLog file you've added?

Thanks

Most of the tests for DBD::ADO and DBI::Shell uses Test::More.
