In order to execute the unit tests in the solutions, the following software needs to be installed on the machine running the tests:

  • Oracle XE (express edition), 64 bit
  • Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio or SQL Developer to run data scripts on Oracle. Oracle XE comes with the SQL*Plus terminal utility, which isn't very good with multibyte characters. To insert multibyte character strings to the database, you'll need one of these tools.
  • ODBC driver for Access, 64 bit (you may have this installed already if you installed MS-Access). You can determine if you have this driver by opening Microsoft ODBC Administrator (64-bit) from the Start menu and check the System DSN tab. You can also find it as "Set up ODBC data sources (64-bit)". If the driver does not exist, after installing the driver, open the administrator tool, open the System DSN tab, click the Add button, and select Microsoft Access Driver. In the driver setup dialog, select a short name (e.g. "MS Access Database"), a description, and click OK. No need to select databases.
