Also any concern of how heavy the the load will be on the internet? I assume the tests involve lots of data transfer so might use up lots of bandwidth. On the plus side, such tests mimics real world situations more closely.
-1 for Sending plain text passwords. but then again adding protection for theses poses heavier load on the machines. What Andrew at Ingres did for us last term is to provide VPN connection to the test server, then created special user with restricted rights that owns the database. So basically if there's a way to isolate the VM, better still the physical machine for a test environment, maybe that'll do it. 2010/5/8 <[email protected]>: > Hmmm > > If have a VM running db2,oracle-xe,postgis and mysql.
