Would it be possible to have a helper function to check this:

+ok( $node_standby->poll_query_until(
+        'postgres',
+        qq[SELECT count(*) FROM pg_stat_activity
+           WHERE backend_type = 'checkpointer' AND wait_event = 'CreateRestartPoint' ;],
+        '1'),
+    'checkpointer is waiting in restart point'
+) or die "Timed out while waiting for checkpointer to run restart point”;

So that we could do something like

ok(node_standby->await_injection_point(“CreateRestartPoint”,”checkpointer"));

IMO, this could make many tests cleaner.
Or, perhaps, it’s a functionality for a future development?

Thanks!
