Thanks for your comments and code pointers! In patch update I've added support for running JDBC tests with JTDS. When `useJTDSInsteadOfMSSQLJDBC` test config options s set to `true`, then tests...

> I agree with your suggested iterative approach. But there are still some areas where we dont have clarity yet, such as, what all is not working for JTDS? I...

Thanks for the details! And apologies for lack of activity on this, I was side-tracked by other Babelfish problems (prompted by usage of Cognos Analytics (#2404) and pgAgent (#2413) with...

I've added all suggested existing tests to jTDS runs. For tests that have different output on jTDS, but behave the same on both MSSQL and Babelfish, I've created copies with...

Added TableType tests, they work correctly with slightly different output. Investigated Cursor tests: cursors usage with jTDS is not supported on Babelfish. jTDS calls `sp_cursorfetch` procedure with unsupported `FETCH_INFO` option.

Added TestXML, it works correctly with minor differences in metadata output.

Remaining test failures (with comments for corresponding test groups): - TestDecimal - TestDatetime2 Fractional parts of records inserted with jTDS differ from ones inserted with mssql-jdbc. - TestDatetimeoffset `select` output...

Fixed the problems with time and datetime2 fractional seconds and fixed the length check for incoming (n)varchar(max) long strings. Remaining failures: - TestDecimal - TestDatetime2 - TestSQLVariant - TestCursorFetchNext -...

Added support for returning sql_variant date values as nvarchar, it is clear now how to fix remaining TestSQLVariant failures with other date/time types.
