NAME
mysql_client_test - test client API
mysql_client_test_embedded - test client API for embedded
server
SYNOPSIS
mysql_client_test [options] [test_name] ...
mysql_client_test_embedded [options] [test_name] ...
DESCRIPTION
The mysql_client_test program is used for testing aspects of
the MySQL client API that cannot be tested using mysqltest
and its test language. mysql_client_test_embedded is
similar but used for testing the embedded server. Both
programs are run as part of the test suite.
The source code for the programs can be found in in
tests/mysql_client_test.c in a source distribution. The
program serves as a good source of examples illustrating how
to use various features of the client API.
mysql_client_test is used in a test by the same name in the
main tests suite of mysql-test-run.pl but may also be run
directly. Unlike the other programs listed here, it does not
read an external description of what tests to run. Instead,
all tests are coded into the program, which is written to
cover all aspects of the C language API.
mysql_client_test supports the following options:
o --help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
o --basedir=dir_name, -b dir_name
The base directory for the tests.
o --count=count, -t count
The number of times to execute the tests.
o --database=db_name, -D db_name
The database to use.
o --debug[=debug_options], -#[debug_options]
Write a debugging log if MySQL is built with debugging
support. The default debug_options value is
'd:t:o,/tmp/mysql_client_test.trace'.

o --getopt-ll-test=option, -g option
Option to use for testing bugs in the getopt library.
o --host=host_name, -h host_name
Connect to the MySQL server on the given host.
o --password[=password], -p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If
you use the short option form (-p), you cannot have a
space between the option and the password. If you omit
the password value following the --password or -p option
on the command line, you are prompted for one.
o --port=port_num, -P port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
o --server-arg=arg, -A arg
Argument to send to the embedded server.
o --show-tests, -T
Show all test names.
o --silent, -s
Be more silent.
o --socket=path, -S path
The socket file to use when connecting to localhost
(which is the default host).
o --testcase, -c
The option is used when called from mysql-test-run.pl,
so that mysql_client_test may optionally behave in a
different way than if called manually, for example by
skipping some tests. Currently, there is no difference
in behavior but the option is included to make this
possible.
o --user=user_name, -u user_name
The MySQL user name to use when connecting to the
server.
o -v dir_name, --vardir=dir_name
