Is there a set of stubs/mocks for JDBC available anywhere?

I don't know if you have seen it or not but there's MockRunner . It provides many classes that implement the interfaces of JDBC (as well as other J2EEclasses). Here's the JDBC mock objects .

There are also quite a few examples .

Otherwise, the DAO layer is the obvious place to do your mocking, but if you're trying to test the DAO, then you'll need to mock that which comes beneath.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
