Attached are new patches somewhat based on the comments provided by
Peter Eisentraut
(http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/54F62C3F.8070702@gmx.net).
- 0001 makes prove_check install the contents of the path located at
$(CURDIR)/t/extra if present, which would be the path that test
developers could use to store extensions, plugins or modules that
would then be usable by a given set of TAP tests as they are installed
in the temporary installation before launching the tests.
- 0002 is the test for pg_dump checking extensions containing FK
tables, this time integrated as a TAP test in src/bin/pg_dump, with
the extension in src/bin/pg_dump/t/extra.
IMO, this approach is scalable enough thinking long-term. And I think
that the location of those extra extensions is fine in t/ as an
hardcoded subfolder (any fresh idea being of course welcome) as this
makes the stuff in extra/ dedicated to only on set of TAP tests, and
it is even possible to set multiple extensions/modules.
