    If Sqitch is to succeed, it needs to get into the hands of as many people as possible. That means making it easy to install for people who are not Perl hackers and don’t want to deal with CPAN. The Sqitch Homebrew Tap is my first public stab at that. It provides a series of “Formulas” for Homebrew users to easily download, build, and install Sqitch and all of its dependencies.

  • Introducing pgTAP

    https://justatheory.com/2008/06/introducing-pgtap

    So I started working on a new PostgreSQL data type this week. More on that soon; in the meantime, I wanted to create a test suite for it, and wasn’t sure where to go. The only PostgreSQL tests I’ve seen are those distributed with Elein Mustain’s tests for the email data type she created in a PostgreSQL General Bits posting from a couple of years ago. I used the same approach myself for my GTIN data type, but it was rather hard to use: I had to pay very close attention to what was output in order to tell the description output from the test output. It was quite a PITA, actually.
