What we’re about
The Sacramento SQL Server User Group is a local chapter of the Professional Association for SQL Server (PASS). The mission of PASS is to empower data professionals who leverage Microsoft technologies to connect, share, and learn through networking, knowledge sharing, and peer-based learning. We meet the first Wednesday of each month (6PM to 8PM) to discuss anything SQL Server. Additionally, we host a SQLSaturday event every summer.
We are new to Meetup.com, but we are not a new group; we've been meeting since March, 2010! For more info on our history, check out sac.pass.org.
Monthly meetings usually feature a presentation, but a few times per year we just have an open forum that allows attendees to discuss real-world SQL Server related questions, issues and concerns which are addressed as a group.
We start each meeting with some time to network and get situated. Unless otherwise noted, the schedule for each meeting will be:
6:00 PM - 6:15 PM: Mingle/networking, get food & beverages, presentation setup <br>6:15 PM - 6:30 PM: Group announcements, agenda, introduce speaker <br>6:30 PM - 7:30 PM: Presentation <br>7:30 PM - 8:00 PM: Post-meeting discussions.

See all- How tSQLt can help build unit testsNeeds location
"tSQLt" is a unit testing framework for SQL Server. In real-world scenario
there are customers with their QA team subject to run nearly 50 distinct
simple to complex TSQL statements as part of their testing. In order to
complete a test case they are subject to run multiple TSQL statements manually, take the result set from one query and either a column value, or based on the result set, modify the 2nd query before running and reviewing its result set. They literally have to do this one hundreds of databases. How can we make it easier for the team performing
this laborious manual task? "tSQLt" is one such solution that can accomplish it.
Let us explore "tSQLt" as to what it is, what it can do and how it can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines.6pm - 6:30pm - Dinner, networking, setup
