DbFit 0.9: Support for MySql, complete Oracle for Java support and more

Published by gojko under dbfit

A new binary release of DbFit is now on available. Grab it from SourceForge. This is a general catch-up and clean-up release, generally intended as a replacement for all the ad-hoc binary builds over the last few months.

New and noteworthy:

General:

  • support for embedding DbFit tables into Java/.Net tests as a quick and efficient way to prepare the stage or verifying db results
  • new fixtures: QueryStats and Clean for quick checking and cleaning up tables
  • support for testing individual error codes with stored procs

Java:

  • initial support for MySql 5
  • support for Oracle stored functions, float and timestamps

DotNet

  • support for BIT data type in SQLServer 2005
  • support for Oracle Float data type

dbfit-complete-20070904.zip package contains all binaries (.NET and Java), examples and acceptance tests. Download that package if you want to start using DbFit. For those of you that already have an older binary release in use, I prepared smaller packages with DotNet and Java binaries.
