PFA version which checks log output.
But I could not come up with a proper use of BackgroundPsql->query_until() to check outputs. And there are multiple possible errors.

We can copy test from src/bin/psql/t/001_basic.pl:

# test behavior and output on server crash
my ($ret, $out, $err) = $node->psql('postgres',
"SELECT 'before' AS running;\n"
. "SELECT pg_terminate_backend(pg_backend_pid());\n"
. "SELECT 'AFTER' AS not_running;\n");

is($ret, 2, 'server crash: psql exit code');
like($out, qr/before/, 'server crash: output before crash');
ok($out !~ qr/AFTER/, 'server crash: no output after crash');
is( $err,
'psql:<stdin>:2: FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command
psql:<stdin>:2: server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
psql:<stdin>:2: error: connection to server was lost',
'server crash: error message’);

But I do not see much value in this.
What do you think?


Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
