A sample MySQL employees database with an integrated test suite, migrated from Launchpad, also compatible with MariaDB, Percona Server, and PostgreSQL. It is used to test applications and database servers against realistic data.

Use cases

• populate a MySQL database with sample data for testing queries
• benchmark database server performance with a realistic dataset
• test application SQL against a known dataset with integrity checks
• learn SQL with a sample employees schema
• verify MariaDB or PostgreSQL compatibility with a MySQL sample database

When to choose

• you need a well-known sample dataset for MySQL, MariaDB, Percona, or PostgreSQL testing
• you want integrity test scripts to validate database behavior
• you are following MySQL documentation tutorials that use the employees database

When to avoid

• you need production-like data volumes or sensitive realistic data
• you need a dataset for non-relational databases
• you require a maintained software library rather than static sample data
