The test can now be run outside of the test source directory. Since the
`test_dir` global variable contains the absolute path to the test source,
all copying of configurations and execution of scripts can be done with
minimal changes.
The CDC connector can be build directly into the core testing library for
testing purposes. This way we remove an unnecessary dependency on a
library. This commit fixes the linkage failure of the cdc_datatypes test.
Now that the connector resides in the same repository, it can be built as
a library for the tests. Installing the development package is one option
but it would unnecessarily complicate the build process.
The cdc_datatypes test did not use the correct connector and instead it
used a stale version of the MaxScale CDC Connector. The connector should
be treated as an external dependency and thus cloned at configuration
time.
The test environment is now checked to contain all executables needed for
testing before tests are built. They can be overridden by defining the
relevant HAVE_X variables (currently only HAVE_MYSQLTEST and HAVE_PHP are
defined).
The CDC connector was moved to its own repository and some changes to its
interface were made. Updated build scripts, deleted old connector and
fixed code to use new interfaces.
The test suite now compiles Jansson instead of letting the CDC connector
do it. This way the connector can be used as a very simple static library
with a dependency on the Jansson library.
