I’m starting a new opensource project (for real estate) and wanted to focus on using MySQL, but would also like to ensure it works in PostgreSQL. What is the best way to doing this without having to continually test in both environments? I’m assuming the db schema is close to the same, but there could be some differences on the SQL script to set up the databases – right? what about scripts?
What Development environment are you using?
if your using .NET, JAVA you could use an ORM(Object Relational Mapper) like Hibernate (NHibernate for .net) and that will take care of you db interoperability, for PHP or ruby I would look for something equivalent.
Edit point:
