I noticed this when working on the PostgreSQL::Test::Session project I
have in hand. All the tests pass except occasionally the xid_wraparound
tests fail. It's not always the same test script that fails either. I
tried everything but couldn't make the failure stop. So then I switched
out my patch so it's running on plain master and set things running in a
loop. Lo and behold it can be relied on to fail after only a few
iterations.
In the latest iteration the failure looks like this
stderr:
# poll_query_until timed out executing this query:
#
# SELECT NOT EXISTS (
# SELECT *
# FROM pg_database
# WHERE age(datfrozenxid) >
current_setting('autovacuum_freeze_max_age')::int)
#
# expecting this output:
# t
# last actual query output:
# f
# with stderr:
# Tests were run but no plan was declared and done_testing() was not seen.
# Looks like your test exited with 29 just after 1.
(test program exited with status code 29)
