MARIADB-CLIENT-TEST(1) MariaDB Database System MARIADB-CLIENT-TEST(1)
mariadb-client-test - test client API (mariadb-client-test is now
a symlink to mariadb-client-test)
mariadb-client-test-embedded - test client API for embedded server
(mariadb-client-test-embedded is now a symlink to mariadb-client-
test-embedded)
mariadb-client-test [options] [test_name] ...
mariadb-client-test-embedded [options] [test_name] ...
The mariadb-client-test program is used for testing aspects of the
MariaDB client API that cannot be tested using mariadb-test and
its test language. mariadb-client-test-embedded is similar but
used for testing the embedded server. Both programs are run as
part of the test suite.
The source code for the programs can be found in in tests/mariadb-
client-test.c in a source distribution. The program serves as a
good source of examples illustrating how to use various features
of the client API.
mariadb-client-test is used in a test by the same name in the main
tests suite of mariadb-test-run.pl but may also be run directly.
Unlike the other programs listed here, it does not read an
external description of what tests to run. Instead, all tests are
coded into the program, which is written to cover all aspects of
the C language API.
mariadb-client-test supports the following options:
• --help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
• --basedir=dir_name, -b dir_name
The base directory for the tests.
• --count=count, -t count
The number of times to execute the tests.
• --database=db_name, -D db_name
The database to use.
• --debug[=debug_options], -#[debug_options]
Write a debugging log if MariaDB is built with debugging
support. The default debug_options value is
'd:t:o,/tmp/mariadb-client-test.trace'.
• --getopt-ll-test=option, -g option
Option to use for testing bugs in the getopt library.
• --host=host_name, -h host_name
Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
• --password[=password], -p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use
the short option form (-p), you cannot have a space between
the option and the password. If you omit the password value
following the --password or -p option on the command line, you
are prompted for one.
• --port=port_num, -P port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
• --server-arg=arg, -A arg
Argument to send to the embedded server.
• --show-tests, -T
Show all test names.
• --silent, -s
Be more silent.
• --socket=path, -S path
The socket file to use when connecting to localhost (which is
the default host).
• --testcase, -c
The option is used when called from mariadb-test-run.pl, so
that mariadb-client-test may optionally behave in a different
way than if called manually, for example by skipping some
tests. Currently, there is no difference in behavior but the
option is included in order to make this possible.
• --user=user_name, -u user_name
The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
• -v dir_name, --vardir=dir_name
The data directory for tests. The default is mariadb-test/var.
