I'm sorry but I really don't agree with this. One of the point the OP made is that if you develop in SQLite and deploy on a Postgresql database, it means you discard all the features that postgresql has over SQLite (data types and SQL Queries for example).

You wouldn't test your Facebook consuming API code with a Twitter endpoint, why do you apply the same logic to your DBMS?

Exactly. IIRC, it is possible to run postgresql in memory if you configure it correctly. In the age of docker and the like, having different concurrent instances of a dbms should be easy enough, right?
