you can store a ref cursor into a symbol (i.e. use >>mycursor in the output cell) and then use that as an input for the query fixture. An example is in DotNet.AcceptanceTests.OracleAcceptanceTests.RefCursorOutput. Java version still does not support this, but it is not hard to add (nobody requested it yet, I will add it if you need it)

Hi,

Excellent work. I read in DBFit-oracle.pdf that there is some support for ref cursors, but I can’t get them work. Could you please provide some working example of a test using function with such cursor.

BR,

Peter

Hi,

DbUnit is an extension for JUnit (so it requires java knowledge), and works in an x-Unit style fashion. DbFit is an extension for FIT/FitNesse, so it works in a tabular/relational language, which comes much more natural for database objects. In addition to mixing with Java or .Net tests, it can be used by db specialists for TDD without writing java or .net code. Also, it has quite a few useful features to speed up test writing, like automatic transaction rollback on the end of the test.
