Limitations

SQL Server - no users will be dropped

Cleaning additional objects

For complicated database structures an accurate dependency graph cannot always be constructed, so not every object is cleaned. There are also objects that we do not drop as they aren’t always safe to, for example, users in SQL Server. To clean additional objects, you can add an afterClean callback defining drop statements. For example afterClean.sql:

DROP USER test_user
