Hello everyone, in the past weeks, I put together "xmldumps-test"---a test suite for Ariel's xmldumps-backup software. xmldumps-test tries to assure that the MySQL database, MediaWiki, and xmldumps-backup play nicely together.
xmldumps-test injects data into the database (so do not use it on a live database), starts xmldumps-backup, and compares the generated XML dumps against pre-verified data. Using xmldumps-test I hope to catch problems caused by modifications to MediaWiki or xmldumps-backup /before/ they hit Wikimedia's production servers dumping enwiki, ... The code is up for review at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/operations/dumps/test.git . README serves as general point of entry to the documentation. README.installation shows you how to set up xmldumps-test. After setup is completed, ./run_tests.sh runs all available tests. xmldumps-test comes with tests for REL1_1{7,8,9} and trunk. I'd love to get some feedback, or comments on the scripts.
