This patch adds extensive functional tests for the DynamoDB multi-item
transactions feature - the TransactWriteItems and TransactGetItems
requests. We add 43 test functions, spanning more than 1000 lines of code,
covering the different parameters and corner cases of these requests.
Because we don't support the transaction feature in Alternator yet (this
is issue #5064), all of these tests fail on Alternator but all of them
were tested to pass on DynamoDB. So all new tests are marked "xfail".
These tests will be handy for whoever will implement this feature as
an acceptance test, and can also be useful for whoever will just want to
understand this feature better - the tests are short and simple and
heavily commented.
Note that these tests only check the correct functionality of individual
calls of these requests - these tests cannot and do not check the
consistency or isolation guarantees of concurrent invocations of
several requests. Such tests would require a different test framework,
such as the one requested in issue #6350, and are therefore not part of
this patch.
Note that this patch includes ONLY tests, and does not mean that an
implementation of the feature will soon follow. In fact, nobody is
currently working on implementing this feature.
