Subject: Some tests for TOAST, STORAGE MAIN/EXTENDED
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 16:03:59 +0900
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
Hi all,
While playing with the TOAST code this week, I have managed to break
the handling of inline compressible entries, and noticed that the main
regression test suite did not complain following that.
Breaking that stuff is my issue, but I would like to add some
regression tests to cover all that, giving the attached. This also
includes tests with EXTENDED in the same area, while on it, with
checks for the TOAST table itself.
Thoughts or comments?
