These dot-commands help in writing scripts that test various SQL language features in SQLite. For example, I could test various row-value comparisons using a script like this: .testcase 100 SELECT (1,2,3)<(1,2,4), (1,2,3)<(1,NULL,4), (1,2,3)<(2,NULL,1); .check 1||1 Running that script using: ./sqlite3 <script.txt Generates output: "testcase-100 ok". Or, it generates an error message if the expected result does not appear. -- D.
