I created new regression test for check SET and RESET commands and

Does this actually accomplish anything? The checks that retail SETs
and RESETs work seem redundant with numerous existing tests.
I think no. I have not found any test specialized to GUC subsystem. Some
tests use SET/RESET command but only in same situation. I want to test
"complete" GUC subsystem. My patch is first step.
The SELECT
from pg_settings is a seriously bad idea: it adds 100K of bloat to the
regression files, tests nothing of great interest, and will cause
regression test failures under a large variety of scenarios
Yes, you have right. My idea was check if GUC subsystem setups all
settings correctly, but this test should bring more problems than
advantages. I probably take subset ( one for each datatype) of relative
stable settings, and perform checks on this set. However, this test
require be first of all regression tests.
