in thread CPAN test suites with SQL

As for testing against other databases: You can, in some cases, just spin up a temporary instance. If i remember correctly, DBD::Pg does (or "did"?) this during testing for PostgreSQL by using a temporary directory. And i'm pretty sure you can start a mysqld instance the same way.

    I use Test::PostgreSQL for that all the time, in my applications. I usually don't for my CPAN modules, though SQL::Translator's tests conditionally check for it and SKIP otherwise.
