NDbUnit is a .NET library for managing database state during unit testing.

NDbUnit may be used to increase repeatability in unit tests that interact with a database by ensuring that the database's state is consistent across execution of tests. NDbUnit does this by allowing the unit test to perform an operation on a dataset before or after the execution of a test, thus ensuring a consistent state.
