+Setting up your database
|
|
|
+========================
|
|
|
+Some tests are file based (e.g. those for bufdataset); others by their nature need databases (e.g. a Firebird SQLDB test).
|
|
|
+File-based tests will generally write to the current/test directory, a subdirectory or a temp file.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For SQLDB database servers, please make sure you have a username/password and a database set up that the test suite can use and abuse.
|
|
|
+The database can be empty: the test suite will create and delete tables etc. in this database as needed.
