Using the public Dabo database is fine, but if the problem can be recreated in sqlite that is ideal because sqlite is guaranteed to be present on all python installations. I, for example, haven't bothered installing MySQL on all my systems. I also think sqlite is ideal to test with because of the ability to create in-memory databases that just live as long as the test script. Makes for very short test scripts, such as the one still at http://paulmcnett.com/test_grid_textbox.py And if the given problem isn't present when using sqlite, you pretty much guarantee you found a problem with either the sqlite adapter or the adapter for the database you are using, not a ui- or biz-layer issue.
