Apologies if my posting was deemed to be spam. I am not a regular
reader of these newsgroups so wouldn't know.

I developed Jester originally as an internal company app to test some
stored procedures provided by a third party. The SPs were of poor
quality and needed extensive testing before being accepted. It can get
rather tedious typing in SQL. The app was tidied up and genericised
and released to the web where it was hoped it would be of use to other
parites.
