Database Clones for Development Databases

Flyway Enterprise integrates with Redgate's Test Data Manager to provision database clones with realistic datasets for development and test.  Some use cases include:

  1. Use a clone for dedicated development database sandboxes
  2. Use a clone for isolated development when working against a branch (e.g., main, feature1, release, etc.)
  3. Use a clone to quickly spin up a shadow database to generate and test migration scripts
  4. Use clones as part of your CI/CD pipeline to run multiple tests in parallel


Requirements

  • You will need to be licensed for Flyway Enterprise and Test Data Manager
  • You will need to be able to access the Test Data Manager web API from the machine where Flyway Desktop is installed
