Currently instances of PostgresNode find their Postgres executables in
the PATH of the caller. This modification allows for instances that know
the installation path they are supposed to use, and the module adjusts
the environment of methods that call Postgres executables appropriately.
This facility is activated by passing the installation path to the
constructor:
my $node = PostgresNode->get_new_node('mynode',
installation_path => '/path/to/installation');
This makes a number of things substantially easier, including
. testing third party modules
. testing different versions of postgres together
. testing different builds of postgres together

PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check".
