I don't see that writing code to test SPROCs is that hard just have a set of inputs that match all of the use cases including all the edge ones run that through and check that the results on the db are as expected.

Debugging mm possibly slightly harder in that you might have to have a 3rd monitor for Toad or work Manager - but you code your sprocs properly in the first place you should not have that many problems that jump between code and sql .

Just saying its hard doesn't help in that case we ought to still be coding in GWBASIC
