Hi Kirill Automated testing of proprietary back ends (in my case SQLServer) faces the challenge of the test bed having access to an instance of the server. I did get an offer of support from MSFT/Revo who set up an instance for my (non automated) testing but connecting failed due to some firewall issue. Currently I rely on being able to use a mix of a public instance (sparingly) and an instance at work.
Cheers.

Improving DBI (Kirill M?ller) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Thu, 31 Dec 2015 02:59:53 +0100 From: Kirill M?ller <kirill.muel...@ivt.baug.ethz.ch> To: <r-sig-db@r-project.org> Subject: [R-sig-DB] Improving DBI Message-ID: <56848c19.2070...@ivt.baug.ethz.ch> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; format=flowed Hi I have prepared a proposal for improving DBI, and three backends to open-source databases: http://bit.ly/1QZNNrC (current version), http://bit.ly/1Uhn1ZC (version at the time of writing). Among other things, I plan to improve support for data types, parametrized queries, and database schemas. Ultimately, DBI will be formally specified by a test suite and a written description. Before submitting it to the R Consortium, I'd be glad to receive further input. Are there other design issues that need to be addressed? Other points I have missed? Issues you might want to see resolved as part of this project? See also the GitHub issue trackers for DBI [1] (which also contains the design discussion [2]), RMySQL [3], RPostgres [4] and RSQLite [5]. Please note that the deadline for submitting the proposal is already January 10. Thank you for your attention.
