Scripts that have the `no-writes` flag, cannot execute write commands, and since all `deny-oom` commands are write commands, we now act as if the `allow-oom` flag is implicitly set for scripts that set the `no-writes` flag. this also implicitly means that the EVAL*_RO and FCALL_RO commands can never fails with OOM error. Note about a bug that's no longer relevant: There was an issue with EVAL*_RO using shebang not being blocked correctly in OOM state: When an EVAL script declares a shebang, it was by default not allowed to run in OOM state. but this depends on a flag that is updated before the command is executed, which was not updated in case of the `_RO` variants. the result is that if the previous cached state was outdated (either true or false), the script will either unjustly fail with OOM, or unjustly allowed to run despite the OOM state. It doesn't affect scripts without a shebang since these depend on the actual commands they run, and since these are only read commands, they don't care for that cached oom state flag. it did affect scripts with shebang and no allow-oom flag, bug after the change in this PR, scripts that are run with eval_ro would implicitly have that flag so again the cached state doesn't matter. p.s. this isn't a breaking change since all it does is allow scripts to run when they should / could rather than blocking them.
Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
| Option | Impact |
|---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_servercontexttagscontext that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
| Tag | Indicates |
|---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode. |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not campatible with --tls. |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the
external:skip tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
