SQL Test by Redgate is a powerful add-in for SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) that enables developers to create and run unit tests for SQL Server databases directly within SSMS.

• Seamless Integration with SSMS: SQL Test integrates directly into SSMS, allowing you to write and execute unit tests without leaving your development environment, streamlining your workflow.
• Leverages tSQLt Framework: Built on the open-source tSQLt framework, SQL Test enables you to write tests in regular T-SQL, utilizing familiar syntax and tools to validate your database code.
• Non-Intrusive Testing: Tests are stored in a separate schema and run within transactions that roll back any changes, ensuring your database remains unaffected and eliminating the need for cleanup code.
• Efficient Test Execution: Run multiple tests with a single click and view real-time results, enhancing productivity and providing immediate feedback on your database code.
• Isolated Object Testing: Utilize stored procedures to fake tables, triggers, and constraints, allowing you to test database objects in isolation without concerns about keys or IDs.
• Pre-Written SQL Cop Tests: SQL Test includes SQL Cop tests to enforce best practices and perform static analysis, helping you identify issues like fragmented indexes and missing keys early in the development process.
• Comprehensive Documentation and Support: Access detailed documentation, tutorials, and a supportive community to assist you in effectively implementing and utilizing SQL Test.

By incorporating SQL Test into your development process, you can enhance code quality, streamline testing procedures, and ensure the reliability of your SQL Server databases.
