ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus, system, and signal-bearing medium that in an embodiment receive a scope level, find datasource configuration data based on the scope level, find an environment variable based on the scope data, and load a database driver based on the datasource configuration data and the environment variable. A connection to a database server is attempted via the database driver. If the connection is successful, success is reported. If the connection fails, failure is reported. In this way, a connection to a database server may be tested without needing to write and deploy an application.
