Decision factors
Decision Factors
Beslisfactoren
- Need for transactional replay versus flat data import.
- Requirement to preserve schema changes, ordering, and rollback behavior.

- How often support or QA needs to inspect and diff the fixture by hand.
Veelvoorkomende fouten om te vermijden
- Using CSV as the only seed artifact when ordered transactional replay is required.
- Treating a large SQL fixture like a dummy blob instead of validating it against a real parser and database.
- Skipping rollback rehearsal before promoting large seed loads into CI or staging.
