I suggest you to explore the possibilities of the java jdbc architecture to access and retrieve values from the database. You can use the the retrieved values to validate. :)
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
public class DatabaseConnections {
private Connection connection = null;
public Connection getDBConnectionQKB9() {
System.out
.println("DATABASE CONNECTION - Oracle JDBC Connection initialization");
try {
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
if (connection != null) {
System.out
.println("DATABASE CONNECTION - Gained control - QKB9 database");
} else {
System.out
.println("DATABASE CONNECTION - Failed to make connection - QKB9 database");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void getData() {
try {
PreparedStatement pt= connection.prepareStatement(query);
ResultSet rs = pt.executeQuery();
while (rs.next()) {
//insert code to validate
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void closeDBConnection() {
try {
connection.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
