Previously, information about each test-suite was repeated in 3 separate
places:
- as a label and as implicit knowledge in the test-suite itself,
- as a comment in Main.hs, and
- as a configuration in SpecHelper.hs.
With this change, there will be a single source of truth in the test
suite itself. This will allow a single test-suite to easily test
multiple different configurations.
Disabling the autovacuum daemon should also help reproducibility in
theory, although I don't know of any cases where we hit a problem with
that.
VACUUM changes the order of rows that PostgreSQL returns for some table
without explicit ordering, thus doing the latter to make it consistently
reproducible.
After ANALYZE estimates are 100% exact for the moment, so some requests
which returned 206 Partial Response now return 200 instead. The fact
that PostgREST returns 206 on an unfiltered endpoint can probably be
considered a bug.
