It's possible. I only specify what I want from it. I don't know other
odbc test suites.
If it fits my requirements it'll be simple to reproduce error from
log output of psqlodbc in the future. I think we process log output
through grep, awk and we get the input for test suite.
I'm open to discussion about the test suite fetures and architecture.
I post it here in this case too.

Maybe I understand this bad. Are you volunteer?

No, I don't know it. Could you explain it to us? Everyone who feel that
we may use another ODBC test suite is welcome with his opinion and
his knowledge.
If someone would write it afresh the test suite could be written whatever
language you want. I think about PERL as it could be the fastest and
easiest way for me. But anyone could feel free to use what he want (after
discussion here).
I don't need the test suite know the constants. I get the values
so it could only know integral numbers, real numbers (maybe not
I don't know whole ODBC spec), string and maybe some other basic
types.
