Seeking Guidance on Adding Firebird Support in SQLancer for GSoC 2025

[Syedmahmood777]

Hello Firebird Team,

I’m interested in contributing to GSoC 2025 under SQLancer, a tool for automated database fuzz testing. As part of my project, I would like to add Firebird support in SQLancer to help improve automated testing and detect potential issues through SQL fuzzing.

The SQLancer guidelines recommend reaching out to database maintainers first to ensure that they are open to this testing effort and to align with any existing best practices. Before proceeding, I wanted to check where I should reach out to discuss guidelines, feasibility, and best practices for integrating Firebird with SQLancer.

First you should be able to tell the difference between ClickHouse and Firebird.

Apologies for that! Poor copy-paste error from my side

For questions like this, it is better to use our development mailing list (Google Group) at https://groups.google.com/g/firebird-devel
