Re: [jira] Commented: (DERBY-499) Expose BOOLEAN datatype to end users

One of my paranoid fears about
the junit assert testing is that it's impossible to tell if a test ran
and did everything, or didn't do anything. The output is the same in
both cases.

It's a downside of assertion-based tests. My workaround is to seed the 
test with print statements, triggered only when a debug flag is set. 
When the silence scares me, I flip on the debug switch and listen to the 
reassuring chatter.
