Hello! Sorry for late answer - I was out of town. (It's strange nobody else
answered the question.)

There is no read-made fake connection in SQLObject, and it'd be a bit
hard to write one, but writing one is the only option if you don't want to
use even SQLite.
You have to implement a connection class - look at SQLiteConnection for
an example (sqlobject/sqlite/sqliteconnection.py). Oh, even better - look
at MySQLConnection and PostgresConnection - they don't have as many
internal helper methods. You don't need to implement metainformation
manipulation and retrieval methods - tableExists, add/delColumn,
columnsFromSchema, guessClass - but other methods are must.
