Nadav Har'El c5121cf273 cql: fix column-name aliases in SELECT JSON
The SELECT JSON statement, just like SELECT, allows the user to rename
selected columns using an "AS" specification. E.g., "SELECT JSON v AS foo".
This specification was not honored: We simply forgot to look at the
alias in SELECT JSON's implementation (we did it correctly in regular
SELECT). So this patch fixes this bug.

We had two tests in cassandra_tests/validation/entities/json_test.py
that reproduced this bug. The checks in those tests now pass, but these
two tests still continue to fail after this patch because of two other
unrelated bugs that were discovered by the same tests. So in this patch
I also add a new test just for this specific issue - to serve as a
regression test.

Fixes #8078

Single-node functional tests for Scylla's CQL features.

These tests use the Python CQL library and the pytest frameworks. By using an actual CQL library for the tests, they can be run against any implementation of CQL - both Scylla and Cassandra. Most tests - except in rare cases - should pass on both, to ensure that Scylla is compatible with Cassandra in most features.

To run all tests against an already-running local installation of Scylla or Cassandra on localhost, just run pytest. The "--host" and "--port" can be used to give a different location for the running Scylla or Cassanra. The "--ssl" option can be used to use an encrypted (TLSv1.2) connection.

More conveniently, we have two scripts - "run" and "run-cassandra" - which do all the work necessary to start Scylla or Cassandra (respectively), and run the tests on them. The Scylla or Cassandra process is run in a temporary directory which is automatically deleted when the test ends.

"run" automatically picks the most recently compiled version of Scylla in build/*/scylla - but this choice of Scylla executable can be overridden with the SCYLLA environment variable. "run-cassandra" defaults to running the command cassandra from the user's path, but this can be overriden by setting the CASSANDRA environment variable to the path of the cassandra script, e.g., export CASSANDRA=$HOME/apache-cassandra-3.11.10/bin/cassandra. A few of the tests also require the nodetool when running on Cassandra - this tool is again expected to be in the user's path, or be overridden with the NODETOOL environment variable. Nodetool is not needed to test Scylla.

Additional options can be passed to "pytest" or to "run" / "run-cassandra" to control which tests to run:

  • To run all tests in a single file, do pytest test_table.py.
  • To run a single specific test, do pytest test_table.py::test_create_table_unsupported_names.
  • To run the same test or tests 100 times, add the --count=100 option. This is faster than running run 100 times, because Scylla is only run once, and also counts for you how many of the runs failed. For pytest to support the --count option, you need to install a pytest extension: pip install pytest-repeat

Additional useful pytest options, especially useful for debugging tests:

  • -v: show the names of each individual test running instead of just dots.
  • -s: show the full output of running tests (by default, pytest captures the test's output and only displays it if a test fails)
