Tutorial: Debugging and Testing JDBC Applications
As a major designer of the JDBC™ specification, Progress DataDirect has used its expertise to develop the first Pure Java™ JDBC testing tool on the market-DataDirect Test™ for JDBC (DataDirect Test). DataDirect JDBC Test is a free tool included with SequeLink Java Client and DataDirect Connect® for JDBC.
DataDirect Test is a graphical, menu-driven program that allows developers to test JDBC applications. It can also be used as a tool to help developers learn the JDBC API. Its menu items either correspond to specific JDBC functions (for example, connecting to a database or passing a SQL statement) or encapsulate multiple JDBC function calls as a shortcut to perform common tasks (for example, returning a record result). DataDirect Test displays the results of all JDBC function calls and provides fully commented sample Java JDBC code in the same window.
You can run DataDirect JDBC Test as an application on both Windows and UNIX. DataDirect JDBC Test can be used with DataDirect SequeLink Java Client and DataDirect Connect for JDBC drivers.
This document provides some examples of ways that you can use DataDirect Test to test your JDBC applications. For complete information about DataDirect Test and a tutorial for DataDirect Test, refer to either the SequeLink Developer's Reference or the DataDirect Connect for JDBC User's Guide and Reference.
