I searched a bit but didn't quite find something that I recognized as being 
what I'm looking for.

What are you doing to test the part of your application that deals directly 
with SQLAlchemy results, wehn it comes to mocking the behaviour of the 
result object?

The background:
I am developing an Importer application that reads from a database via 
SQLalchemy(again, via sqlsoup) and pushes the data into a REST API, after 
transforming the data structures.

So I have to deal with complex results from sqlalchemy queries, and I want 
to build Tests to verify functionality - but I'm still a bit wondering how 
to do it.
As the data is a bit complex, I've been wondering if I can directly save 
real DB query results simply into a file, but didn't yet figure how to do 
this, apart from transforming it completely to json, which then again is a 
bit complicated. 
I could manually create mocks behaving similar to the sqlalchemy result, 
but it could be a lot of work - as said, the structure is quite complex.

I might also be thinking in a totally wrong directions - hints on this also 
welcome ;)

Thanks in advance,
Henning
