The two known workarounds are (1) do "make install" before "make check"; (2) turn off SIP. We've made occasional efforts to develop a less fragile solution. If you're interested in helping with the latest such effort, see https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/ecec88aa-c982-a473-1b0f-cea596d405cf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Is there a way to run just the tests for a particular part of the code?

The core regression tests aren't subdivided, but on the other hand they only take a few seconds on any modern hardware (hint: use the parallelized make targets). There are a lot of other test suites scattered around the tree, and those can be run individually. In your case I'd venture that "make check" in src/test/ssl/ might cover most of what you care about (but see the README there for caveats --- it transiently opens ports). Also, for repeated test runs, using "make install" and then "make installcheck" can save time. regards, tom lane
