DbFit

Purpose: DbFit is a database testing framework for writing readable, maintainable unit and integration tests for database code.
License: DbFit is free and open source under the GPL license.
Test format: DbFit tests use tables, which the project describes as more readable than xUnit-style tests.
Execution: Tests can be run from the command line, a Java IDE, or a CI build tool.
Underlying framework: DbFit is built on FitNesse, which provides the test framework, HTTP server, and wiki editing interface.
Database support: The feature page lists Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, Postgres, Derby, HSQLDB, Sybase, DB2, Teradata, Netezza, and Informix across its Java and FitSharp implementations.
Test types: The documentation describes unit, data diff, invariant, schema, and timing tests.
Spreadsheet authoring: Tests can be authored in Excel or another spreadsheet program and copied into FitNesse as tab-separated tables.
Runtime: The getting started guide says DbFit needs the Java Runtime Environment and describes launching it with a Windows batch file or a Linux shell script.
Local interface: The setup guide starts FitNesse locally and directs users to open http://localhost:8085/ in a browser.
Driver limits: The SQL Server and Teradata JDBC drivers are not open source and cannot be distributed with DbFit, so users must obtain and install them separately.
Support: The project directs users to its forum for questions and discussion and to its issue tracker for bug reports and feature requests.
Maintainers: The project documentation describes separate maintainers for FitNesse, DbFit/Java, and DbFit/FitSharp rather than one unified maintainer group.
Purpose: DbFit is a framework for writing readable, maintainable unit and integration tests for database code.
