The test that row filter was modified is available in a previous section. The
one that you modified (0001) is testing the supported objects.

153 ALTER PUBLICATION testpub5 ADD TABLE testpub_rf_tbl3 WHERE (e > 1000 AND e < 2000);
154 \dRp+ testpub5
155 ALTER PUBLICATION testpub5 DROP TABLE testpub_rf_tbl2;
156 \dRp+ testpub5
157 -- remove testpub_rf_tbl1 and add testpub_rf_tbl3 again (another WHERE expression)
158 ALTER PUBLICATION testpub5 SET TABLE testpub_rf_tbl3 WHERE (e > 300 AND e < 500);
159 \dRp+ testpub5

IIRC this test was written before adding the row filter information into the
psql. We could add \d+ testpub_rf_tbl3 before and after the modification.

WFM.
