> Mostly due to the way the JDBC is structured in general, it's relatively 
> painful to create a simple test case that just creates a simple table, 
> populates it with a couple of rows, and checks the output of a query.
> Adding to this is the fact that there isn't really a single "right way" to 
> write simple unit tests in Phoenix. Some tests try to cleanly close 
> statements, ResultsSets, and Connections, while others don't. New tests of 
> this sort are often created by first copying an existing test.
> The end results is that a couple of simple test cases to test a new built-in 
> function often end up being mostly wresting with JDBC, with the actual test 
> case getting largely hidden in the noise.
> The purpose of this ticket is to propose a utility to simplify creating 
> tables, populating them, and verifying the output.
> The general API I have in mind is would look like this:
> {code}
>      QueryTestUtil.on(jdbcUrl)
>           .createTable("testtable",
>               "id integer not null primary key",
>               "name varchar")
>           .withRows(
>               1, "name1",
>               2, "name2",
>               3, "othername")
>           .verifyQueryResults(
>               "select id, name from testtable where name like 'name%'",
>               1, "name1",
>               2, "name2");
> {code}
> The intention is to make it much less painful to write tests, and also to 
> replace as enough existing test code to use this pattern so that new tests 
> being created based on existing code will also follow this pattern.
