2025-06-26perf test: Change all remaining #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bashJames Clark
There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells installed. Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing bash tests. Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local' variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already widely used in the tests. It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to the large number of bash tests that exist.

2025-03-14perf test: Fixes to variable expansion and stdout for diff testIan Rogers
When make_data fails its error message needs to go to stderr rather than stdout and the stdout value is captured in a variable. Quote the $err value so that it is always a valid input for test. This error is commonly encountered if no sample data is gathered by the test.

2023-12-06perf test shell diff: Skip test if test_loop symbol is missing in the perf ↵Ian Rogers
binary The diff test depends on finding the symbol test_loop in perf and will fail if perf has been stripped and no debug object is available. In that case, skip the test instead.

2023-12-05perf test: Add basic 'perf diff' testIan Rogers
There are some old bug reports on perf diff crashing: https://rhaas.blogspot.com/2012/06/perf-good-bad-ugly.html Happening across them I was prompted to add two very basic tests that will give some 'perf diff' coverage.
