I noticed your post was tagged as SqlServer. If that's the case, then you should look at the Team Edition for Database Professionals that is part of Visual Studio. Here's some articles:

• DbFit, a framework which integrates with FIT and Fitnesse to do functional testing of databases

The last one is actually cross-DB platform, while DBPro is solely SQL Server for now.
