You mean, how do you run the test suite?

RT's test suite assumes that it has a database server where it can
connect and create an rt3test database (or multiple databases if
you're running the test suite in parallel, but we'll ignore that).

So, you probably want a clean rt-3.8.9 directory with your patch
applied where you run:

./configure --enable-layout=inplace --with-db-host=yourtesthost
or possibly
./configure --enable-layout=inplace --with-db-type=SQLite
although I prefer testing on mysql or pg to sqlite, but it requires
more infrastructure tweaking.

then you run

RT_DBA_USER=userwhocancreatedb RT_DBA_PASSWORD=password make test

Isolating this from your production servers is highly recommended,
although you should have to work really hard to get it to clobber your
actual rt3 database.
