I am using the new UI Automation in xCode 7/iOS 9 and I would like to verify some results in an Oracle Database. Is this possible to do in Swift? If not what are my other solutions?
Connect to an Oracle Database with Swift
FYI for those wondering:
In most environments, direct DB access from a mobile device is discouraged (to put it mildly). Because of this, there is almost no pressure to create direct database access libraries for the mobile platforms.
The *suggested* models are to implement the data access as web services and to consume them on mobile via https:// and JSON or XML. I don't agree with this but.. what can you do
Given that swift is now a server side language as well this is no longer an even vaguely correct answer.
you can use Vapor backend for API. Here is an example you can follow https://github.com/iliasaz/vapor-oracle In addition to that you have to install several libraries, follow this link for guidance https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42960601/connecting-to-oracle-database-using-server-side-swift
Now generate API and use it in your app
