This directory contains a framework to test several TDataset descendents.
The framework is based on the fpcunit unit-test system. The tests can be
executed using any fpcunit-testrunner. For example the console and graphical
fpcunit-test runners from Lazarus.
Simply add the test* units in this directory to the uses statement of the
test-runner and all tests will get registered and executed.
An simple test-runner (dbtestframework.pas) which generates XML-output is
included in this directory.
To test a TDataset descendent, a 'connector' is needed to test the database.
To add a new connector, create a new *toolsunit.pas file, then add it to
the uses section in 'dbtestframework.pas'. Several connectors are available
in the '*toolsunit.pas' files.
Which connector is currently used is dependent on the 'database.ini'
configuration file. Also some settings which are connector-dependent can be set
in that file. See 'database.ini.txt' for an example.
I hope this is enough information to get you started,
