Re: [Gusdev-gusdev] unit test for WDK

[Steve F. <st...@pc...>]

One relatively-easy-to-implement possibility for the WDK would be a 
mini-testing framework to *syntax check* the queries in the 
servlet-config files.  It could be given a handle on all the queries, 
along with parameter values (that part is tricky because the db might 
change obsoleting the values).  It would then simply check to see if the 
queries run, and return any values.  IE, don't try to get to regression 
test levels of comparing the result with known answers:  that requires a 
static test dataset.
