SQL Parser Tests
These tools collect a corpus of SQL-like statements in a variety of languages, then use a series of oracles to predict whether each statement is valid in a given language.
Currently postgres-specific.
Note that this is alpha-quality software: oracle output may fail to be correctly interpreted, and APIs may change rapidly (i.e CLIs + ./schema.sql). Even when this is stable, not that oracle predictions may be ambiguous.
Oracle testing
In this repo, "oracle" refers to a black box which issues truthful predictions about a program's behavior, not Oracle the lawsuit-issuing corporation.
Oracle-testing is a black-box testing method which gives limited insight into whether any given statement is valid. Using oracles to predict syntax validity is easier than deriving parsing tests from the numerous specifications of SQL dialects and sql-like languages.
Usage: Consuming a test suite
Download one of the databases from the the last step of a successful ci run
, then query the statements and oracle output using sqlite. You can find the sqlite database schema in the root of this repo.
See also also ./pkg/corpus/sql/get_predictions.sql, which demonstrates how you'd join together the table to retrieve predictions.
