Yeah, I didn't mention it, but I am doing that.  my test.cfg uses a
database that is exclusively set up for testing with.  I still want to
rollback at the end of each test in order to get back to the beginning
state.  For example, I have a test that verifies I can insert a row
into a table.  If I don't rollback or manually delete the row, the
second time I run the test, it will fail because of a PK constraint.

I don't want to manually wipe out all the entries because it is a
hassle to keep updating my teardown method after each new test. So,
how can I purge all the data quickly?
