+CREATE ROLE conditional_tableam_display_role;
As a convention, regression tests need to have roles prefixed with
"regress_" or this would cause some buildfarm members to turn red.
Please see -DENFORCE_REGRESSION_TEST_NAME_RESTRICTIONS (you could use
that in your environment for example).

So, as of the tests.. The role gets added to make sure that when
using \d+ on the full schema as well as the various \d*+ variants we
have a consistent owner. The addition of the relation size for the
sequence and the btree index in the output generated is a problem
though, because that's not really portable when compiling with other
page sizes. It is true that there are other tests failing in this
case, but I think that we should try to limit that if we can. In
short, I agree that having some tests is better than nothing, but I
would suggest to reduce their scope, as per the attached.

Adding \dE as there are no foreign tables does not make much sense,
and also I wondered why \dt+ was not added.

Does the attached look correct to you?
