[gsoc-dev] How to test PostgreSQL in PGD

It's not going to be possible to completely test the new database versus
old database entirely within the Django framework.  Here is an alternative:
 run the default query with the existing database (i.e., MySQL) containing
the small subset of proteins installed by the pgd_splicer tests.  Click
"Statistics" at the top and you should see a bunch of numbers.  Click "Data
dump" and you will download a tab-separated values file containing those
and a whole lot more.  Now make your changes to support PostgreSQL.  If
your code is correct, you should be able to import the same proteins, run
the same search, and get the same values.  That'll be enough to prove the
concept.
