## Writing Tests
### .sqltest (Preferred)@database :default:
test example-addition {
SELECT 1 + 1;
}
expect {
2
}
test example-multiple-rows {
SELECT id, name FROM users WHERE id < 3;
}
expect {
1|alice
2|bob
}

You must start converting TCL tests with the `convert` command from the test runner (e.g `cargo run -- convert <TCL_test_path> -o <out_dir>`). It is not always accurate, but it will convert most of the tests. If some conversion emits a warning you will have to write by hand whatever is missing from it (e.g unroll a for each loop by hand). Then you need to verify the tests work by running them with `make -C testing/sqltests run-rust`, and adjust their output if something was wrong with the conversion. Also, we use harcoded databases in TCL, but with `.sqltest` we generate the database with a different seed, so you will probably need to change the expected test result to match the new database query output. Avoid changing the SQL statements from the test, just change the expected result
### TCL
do_execsql_test_on_specific_db {:memory:} test-name {
SELECT 1 + 1;
} {2}
Location: `testing/*.test`
### Rust Integration
// tests/integration/test_foo.rs
#[test]
fn test_something() {
let conn = Connection::open_in_memory().unwrap();
// ...
}
## Key Rules
- Every functional change needs a test
- Test must fail without change, pass with it
- Prefer in-memory DBs: `:memory:` (sqltest) or `{:memory:}` (TCL)
- Don't invent new test formats. Follow existing patterns
- Write tests first when possible
## Test Database Schema
`testing/system/testing.db` has `users` and `products` tables. See [docs/testing.md](https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/blob/HEAD/.claude/skills/testing/../../../docs/testing.md) for schema.
