Application to compare results of two SQL queries
It reads tests definitions in XML format form specified directory and than runs them (as TestNG test).
If two SQL returns different results -> test fails.
Application supports TeamCity Service Messages (##teamcity messages) so if teamcityLogsEnabled is set to "true" (config file or command line parameter), you will see nice test tree in TeamCity logs.
To execute tests run program (Java 8 must be installed first (JDK or JRE)):
If you set JAVA_HOME variable:
java -jar DBTestCompare-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
or e.g.
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_92\bin\java" -jar DBTestCompare-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Application provides following features:
- Platform independence - possibility to run on Windows and Linux as well (Java Runtime Environment 8 needed)
- Supports all databases with JDBC drivers provided (tested with Microsoft SQL Server, Teradata, PostgreSQL and MySQL\MariaDB)
- Supports all Continuous Integration tools thanks to TestNG Java unit test framework
- Possibility to compare data between two different database engines even for huge data sets without "Out of memory problem" thanks to incremental solution, more details here
- Possibility to compare data in one database engine in the fastest way using MINUS/EXCEPT Sql operator, more details here
- No need to compile program in order to add new tests - thanks to Test Adapter DataDriven mechanism from TestNG
- Possibility to execute test in parallel by setting Threads parameter in connection file.
- Possibility to build multilevel tests structure
- Possibility to save query results to flat files
- Real time test execution progress in TeamCity, more details here
- Possibility to store Queries in separated files or inline in xml test definitions, more details here
- Connection pool used for executing tests - connections to databases are not closed after each tests, but when all tests are finished
- Possibility to compare query to expected data defined in csv file, more details here
- Possibility to compare query to expected number of rows defined in XML test definition, more details here
- Possibility to choose exit code in case of test failure
- Possibility to connect to OLAP - compare mdx queries, more details here
- Possibility to define "delta" precision of comparing floating point numbers
- Possibility to filter tests for execution by including or excluding, more details here
- Standard TestNG html test report in "test-output" folder, more details here
Program searches for tests definitions by default in folder "test-definitions".
JDBC drivers must be present in "jdbc_drivers" folder. Licensed database drivers are NOT included, only open source like MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL. Download licensed database drivers from the producer of database e.g. Microsoft and put them in "jdbc_drivers" folder (on the same level as *.jar file).

You can override some of the application configuration properties, run app with:
-DtestsDir=path -set tests directory (default: test-definitions)
-DteamcityLogsEnabled=true -log test output in TeamCity format
-DfilterInclude=a.b,g.z.f -comma separated directories or test files which you want to include
-DfilterExclude=a.b.test -comma separated directories or test files which you want to exclude
for example:
java -DtestsDir=my_tests -jar DBTestCompare-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Checkout the code or get compiled jar file from releases page
To compile app to runnable fat jar file, run (Maven must be installed first):
mvn clean compile assembly:single
jar will be created in target directory.
You can manage application by attached ANT (ANT must be installed first) build.xml file (in folder \deploy), script allows to :
-compile app
-replace tokens in connection definition
-replace tokens in SQL queries
