TAP tests vs log_error verbosity=verbose

    Twice recently (b998196bb5 and 19408aae7f) I have had to adjust new TAP tests to handle log_error_verbosity=verbose, and there's a third case needing adjustment in the new auto_explain tests (7c34555f8c). I'm wondering if it would be better to set log_error_verbosity to default for TAP tests, no matter what's in TEMP_CONFIG.  An individual TAP test could still set log_error_verbosity=verbose explicitly if it wanted it. If not I'm going to change one of my buildfarm animals to use log_error_verbosity=verbose so we catch things like this earlier. cheers andrew -- Andrew Dunstan EDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com

I think it's good to be able to enable log_error_verbosity=verbose in case you need to track down some kind of problem. So I'd vote for your second approach. 7c34555f8c is mine, so I'll go fix that. regards, tom lane
