-- SQL commands to test an Oracle installation
-- for adequate privileges and capacity
-- run as the same user as the Web user

-- creating a table
create table foo (
	foo_key	integer primary key,
	random	varchar(1000)
);

-- creating an index
create index foo_on_random on foo ( random );

-- inserting some rows
insert into foo values (1, '1');
insert into foo values (2, '2');
insert into foo values (3, '3');
insert into foo values (4, '4');
insert into foo values (5, '5');
insert into foo values (6, '6');
insert into foo values (7, '7');
insert into foo values (8, '8');
insert into foo values (9, '9');
insert into foo values (10, '10');
insert into foo values (11, null);
insert into foo values (12, null);
insert into foo values (13, null);
insert into foo values (14, null);
insert into foo values (15, null);
insert into foo values (16, null);
insert into foo values (17, null);
insert into foo values (18, null);
insert into foo values (19, null);
insert into foo values (20, null);

-- create another table to work with
create table bar as select foo_key + 1 as bar_key, random from foo;

-- joins
select b.random from foo f, bar b where f.foo_key = b.bar_key and f.random like '3%';

-- update
update foo set foo_key = foo_key + 100 where random is null;

-- should return 10
select count(*) from foo where foo_key > 100;

-- create a sequence
create sequence foo_sequence start with 200;

-- test whether truncate works
truncate table bar;

drop table bar;


-- test 1) whether has privileges to create a procedure
--  and 2)  whether rollback segments are adequately sized

-- create a pl/sql procedure
create or replace procedure thrash_database(v_number_of_rows IN integer)
