#***********************************************************************
#
# Test cases for query planning decisions.
#
# The tests in this file demonstrate the behaviour of the query planner
# in determining the order in which joined tables are scanned.
#
# Assume there are two tables being joined - t1 and t2. Each has a cost
# if it is the outer loop, and a cost if it is the inner loop. As follows:
#
# t1(outer) - cost of scanning t1 as the outer loop.
# t1(inner) - cost of scanning t1 as the inner loop.
# t2(outer) - cost of scanning t2 as the outer loop.
# t2(inner) - cost of scanning t2 as the inner loop.
#
# Depending on the order in which the planner nests the scans, the total
# cost of the join query is one of:
#
# t1(outer) * t2(inner)
# t2(outer) * t1(inner)
#
# The tests in this file attempt to verify that the planner nests joins in
# the correct order when the following are true:
#
# + (t1(outer) * t2(inner)) > (t1(inner) * t2(outer)
# + t1(outer) < t2(outer)
#
# In other words, when the best overall query plan has t2 as the outer loop,
# but when the outer loop is considered independent of the inner, t1 is the
# most efficient choice.
#
# In order to make them more predictable, automatic indexes are turned off for
# the tests in this file.
