    Is there any way to increase the command timeout in DBFit?

    I would like to test some complex data warehouse ETL stored procedures, but I've hit a problem as several run for longer than the default timeout (30 seconds), even on test data.

    I'm not trying to be a "smart guy" here... I'm concerned about the code being tested. Wouldn't the fact that something takes longer than 30 seconds "even on test data" be the first indication of a possible major performance problem which needs to fixed prior to going to production?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
