Class

DatabaseInsertTestCase
Test the insert builder.

Code

function testInsertFieldOnlyDefinintion() {
    // This is useful for importers, when we want to create a query and define
    // its fields once, then loop over a multi-insert execution.
    db_insert('test')->fields(array(
        'name',
        'age',
    ))
        ->values(array(
        'Larry',
        '30',
    ))
        ->values(array(
        'Curly',
        '31',
    ))
        ->values(array(
        'Moe',
        '32',
    ))
        ->execute();
    $saved_age = db_query('SELECT age FROM {test} WHERE name = :name', array(
        ':name' => 'Larry',
    ))->fetchField();
    $this->assertIdentical($saved_age, '30', 'Can retrieve after inserting.');
    $saved_age = db_query('SELECT age FROM {test} WHERE name = :name', array(

    ))->fetchField();
