I bet they're also going to want to rewind the database back to a point
where they've started each destructive test, and then retest too?
And I bet they're also going to want to be able to complete that rewind
themselves, without having to bother a DBA to do it, correct?
And I bet they might even want to share their copies with each other,
without having to bother a DBA, either?
And maybe even do complete functional testing with a full set of data
automatically obfuscated so that everything confidential is masked?
Sure would be neat if there was a way to do all that... :)
