No, I mean something like:
with x as (select pg_partition_tree(relname) from pg_class)
select 1 from x limit 1;
or whatever it takes to make sure that the function is run against every
entry in pg_class (or whatever is appropriate) while not returning the
results (since we don't actually care about the output, we just want to
make sure it doesn't ERROR or crash).
sqlsmith, as I recall, doesn't care about ERROR cases, it's just looking
for crashes, so it's not quite the same thing.
Thanks!
