Eranda Sooriyabandara commented on DERBY-4586:
----------------------------------------------
In this issue when we create a compatibility test,
we cannot have a one global test for every DBMS for test compatibility of all
the DBMS since their SQL slightly differ from each.
So whenever a DBMS add a functionality we have to put it as compatible by
manual. How can we address that issue?
> Add compatibility tests to explore behavior differences between Derby and
> other DBMS implementations

> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement

> It would be interesting to understand Derby's compatibility with other major
> DBMS implementations, such as: Oracle, Sybase, SQL Server, DB2, MySQL, etc.
> I believe this would be an excellent project for a motivated Google Summer of
> Code intern.
> The goal of the project would be to locate various existing compatibility
> test suites and bring them into the Derby test environment, as well as to
> augment those test suites with additional tests developed during the project.
