I haven't reviewed the patch, but a big +1 for the idea. Not only this might cut down on the resource costs of running the tests in CI, as Andres has pointed out a few times, but it also could lead to much nicer user interfaces. For instance, right now, we have a number of TAP tests that are parsing psql output to recover the values returned by queries. Perhaps eventually - or maybe already, again I haven't looked at the code - you'll be able to do something like $resultset->[0][0] to pull the first column out of the first row. That kind of thing could substantially improve the readability and maintainability of some of our tests. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
