Please note the code has been specifically designed around loading a data set from the EFF database, converting it to my needs, and then running test cases over it.

• Python (tested with 2.7.3)
• MySQL
• Python-mysqldb (a library to connect Python to MySQL)

(again assuming have EFF database)

Note for all migrators, builders, and the tester, you can paginate results with migrator.py <start> <#records> For example, migrator.py 10 5 processes rows 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15. Both params are optional. You can use:
migrator.py - to process all records
migrator.py <start> - to process records starting at a certain offset
migrator.py <start> <#records> - to process a given number of records from an offset
This is handy if the process gets interrupted and you don't want to start from scratch.

Note that in many cases it is not safe to rerun migrators or builders over a given record set more than once! See the description in each file for important info if you can rerun or if you need to clear tables before hand.

1. Set up a new MySQL database for the new migration-tuned database and run schema.sql to set up the schema
2. Set the database constants in config.py for both the old and new database

1. Run build.py which runs migrator.py, builder1.py, builder2.py, and builder3.py with auto pagination

1. Run test.py to run test rows through the system
2. Results are saved in the tested table.
