[QGIS-Developer] oracle provider (testing)

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

Hi Devs,

Is anybody feeling self responsible (more or less) for the Oracle driver?

Myself I apparently introduce an issue in it: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/39759 which seems easy to fix, but my problem is I do not have Oracle running....

Are there any Oracle provider tests? And if so: which instance against are these tested against?

Idea: use a QGIS server to install Oracle XE (dev/free edition isn't it?) and provide ssh access to the machine. Then users with a ssh key (Travis?) can create a ssh tunnel to the machine and connect to that (test) db?
Thought to propose issues.qgis.org for that, as that is a beefy machine doing nothing (except keeping old issues/Redmine afloat). But.. that is a Debian 8.10, not sure if recent Oracle's can still run on it...

Input?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
