Show HN: Pg_disorder – shuffle or reverse unordered SELECT resultshttps://github.com/viralpraxis/pg_disorderHey HN!I'm interested in chaos engineering, automatically detecting flaky tests, and, more generally, building tools that can find/trigger invalid states in software systems.My latest experiment is pg_disorder, a PostgreSQL extension that automatically shuffles (or reverses) the results of `SELECT` queries without an `ORDER BY` clause. While the order of rows isn't specified, applications (sometimes) implicitly assume that rows will be returned in insertion order. The project was initially aimed at finding flaky tests, but it also helped uncover bugs in projects like Gitea and Rails (see references in the repo).Some DBMSs have this feature built-in, e.g. SQLite's `reverse_unordered_selects` pragma, but PostgreSQL doesn't.I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
