hi all.

at work we have a test suit that run against a database. so in the 
beginning of the test it populate the database with a predefined data.
the problem is that this process is way too long, making the test suit 
take a long time to run.
so I'm looking for options to cut this time.

is there any ability to freeze a database? so all the changes will be 
temporary and disappear in the end of the test, leaving the database in 
a clean state for the next test?
maybe some kind of middleware?
maybe using transactions? (mysql supports transactions, right?)
can transaction hold a large amount of operations / data? (I don't want 
to limit the test of what it can do to the data...)

Shmuel.
