Hi, Zitat von Stewart Smith <stewart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

These scripts usually consists of mixed DDL (e.g. change a column definition) and DML (e.g. adding new master data). Since our applications are constantly under development we'd like to add these scripts to our continuous integration environment. For that it would be great to have a feature that checks the script against a given database without actually executing it. It should not only check the SQL syntax but also if all mentioned tables, columns etc. exists in the given database.This (of course) won't always work. ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN and then mention that column.
Maybe I was not clear enough here. It should perform all possible checks that are also done if you try to actually execute the script. For an ADD COLUMN this check would of course be that the column does _not_ exists yet.
As an alternative, maybe start up a local server and load data in it to test the scripts on.
That's another approach we're working on. But for some databases the check must be done against a live db (that is not easily clonable due to its size).
Cheers Raphael
