NAME

Class::DBI::Test::SQLite - Base class for Class::DBI tests

SYNOPSIS

__PACKAGE__->set_table('test');
__PACKAGE__->columns(All => qw/id name film salary/);
sub create_sql {
return q{
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
name CHAR(40),
film VARCHAR(255),
salary INT
}
}

DESCRIPTION

This provides a simple base class for Class::DBI tests using SQLite. Each class for the test should inherit from this, provide a create_sql() method which returns a string representing the SQL used to create the table for the class, and then call set_table() to create the table, and tie it to the class.

METHODS

set_table

__PACKAGE__->set_table('test');

This combines creating the table with the normal Class::DBI table() call.

create_sql (abstract)

sub create_sql {
return q{
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
name CHAR(40),
film VARCHAR(255),
salary INT
}
}

This should return, as a text string, the schema for the table represented by this class.
