It is not possible to truncate a table with a shutdown trigger, I imagine
because DDL isn't allowed from a system trigger, even using execute
immediate. You can, though, delete data from the table:
SQL> create table test_table(
2 yoopa number,
3 hungwe varchar2(40),
4 uytre date,
5 klopu varchar2(100));
Table created.
SQL>
SQL> begin
2 for i in 1..100000 loop
3 insert into test_table
4 values(i, 'Beezo'||i, sysdate+i, 'Hoobnertz valyrand
qwertins'||i);
5 end loop;
6
7 commit;
8
9 end;
10 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Even an after startup trigger won't process the 'execute immediate' so the
table remains unchanged.
You'll have to settle for a delete.
