* Package name : libdbd-mock-perl Version : 1.36 Upstream Author : Chris Winters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Stevan Little <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Rob Kinyon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.example.org/ * License : GPL + Artistic Programming Lang: Perl, Python, etc Description : Mock database driver for testing Testing with databases can be tricky. If you are developing a system married to a single database then you can make some assumptions about your environment and ask the user to provide relevant connection information. But if you need to test a framework that uses DBI, particularly a framework that uses different types of persistence schemes, then it may be more useful to simply verify what the framework is trying to do -- ensure the right SQL is generated and that the correct parameters are bound. DBD::Mock makes it easy to just modify your configuration (presumably held outside your code) and just use it instead of DBD::Foo (like DBD::Pg or DBD::mysql) in your framework. I'm packaging this as it is a build-dependency of libcgi-application-plugins-perl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
