NAME

Test::SQLite - SQLite setup/teardown for tests

VERSION

version 0.0409

SYNOPSIS

  use DBI;
  use Test::SQLite;

  # An empty test db:
  my $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new;
  my $dbh = $sqlite->dbh;
  # Fiddle with the test database...
  $dbh->disconnect;

  # Use an in-memory test db:
  $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new(memory => 1);

  # Copy a database file to the test db:
  $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new(database => '/some/where/database.db');

  # Use a schema file to create the test db:
  $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new(
    schema   => '/some/where/schema.sql',
    db_attrs => { RaiseError => 1, AutoCommit => 0 },
  );

  # Explicitly use the dsn and db_attrs to connect:
  $dbh = DBI->connect($sqlite->dsn, '', '', $sqlite->db_attrs);
  # Fiddle with the test database...
  $dbh->commit;
  $dbh->disconnect;

DESCRIPTION

Test::SQLite is inspired by Test::PostgreSQL and Test::mysqld, and creates a temporary sqlite database to use in tests.

This module will also return the database dbh handle, dsn connection string, and db_attrs connection attributes.

ATTRIBUTES

database

The existing database to copy to create a new test database.

has_database

Boolean indicating that a database file was provided to the constructor.

schema

The SQL schema with which to create a test database.

* The SQL parsing done by this module does not handle triggers.

has_schema

Boolean indicating that a schema file was provided to the constructor.

memory

Create a test database in memory.

has_memory

Boolean indicating that memory was provided to the constructor.

db_attrs

DBI connection attributes.

Default: { RaiseError => 1, AutoCommit => 1 }

dsn

The database connection string. This is a computed attribute and an argument given to the constructor will be ignored.

dbh

A connected database handle based on the dsn and db_attrs. This is a computed attribute and an argument given to the constructor will be ignored.

METHODS

new

  $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new;
  $sqlite = Test::SQLite->new(%arguments);
