what do you think ?
Interesting... It's nice that a number of tests pass by default with GTID. You used MASTER_USE_GTID=current_pos. This means that both replicated transactions and direct transactions on the server contribute to the GTID position. But for old-style replication, only replicated transactions update the position. So perhaps MASTER_USE_GTID=slave_pos should be the default? I would guess that this would cause even more tests to pass directly. It would also be possible to add an extra variant/combination (to run replication tests both with and without GTID). We really need this for the checksum feature as well. But I suppose it's also a question of test resources, replication tests already take a long time... I guess one would need to analyse the test failures before implementing this? A test that is ignored when it fails isn't much of a test? - Kristian.
