    Test DB schema

    Hi folks

    May seem like an odd request but this would prove really handy to me (and I'm sure others too) at the moment....

    Anyway, sometimes it's easy to develop code that deals with a specific db schema but wouldn't deal well with another schema (in this instance I'm talking about db structure, relationships, column types etc).  At the moment I'm trying to develop a few generic code elements that, although I can easily test against my own DB's, it would be nice to test against other structures so I can code these elements more defensively/comprehensively.

    Anyway, my "feature request" is this - the ES team are obviously asked to deal with many, many different DB structure combos and I know each of these combos gets included in the ES "test" db structure so is there any chance of making this DB definition available - I know (or believe) some of the data in it might be sensitive but it's just the structure I'm after, not the data - just think it would prove useful.

    Cheers

    Yes, we can do that. In fact, we have a nice little database we call "ForeignKeyTest" that we use to test the hierarchical model and we have it for every database we support. Let me alert David to this thread so he can kill me for saying we can do this Surprise he he

    Great - thanks Mike, just what I wanted to hear!

    My next one will be a request for the Unit Tests, but I can deal with one thing at a time :D

    Hi

    Just wondered whether there was any progress on getting the db creation script made available "publicly" for testing against?

    Cheers
