Generic test database

Hi,

Is there any way for a test suite to use the preferred database of a
tester? Something like a TEST_DATABASE_DSN, TEST_DATABASE_USERNAME,
TEST_DATABASE_PASSWORD triplet that CPAN testers could set to enable
testing on different databases?

A colleague of mine is working on a very interesting module, but even
though he could release a test suite relying on sqlite, I thought it
would be better to use any configured database that was available on the
tester's system.

Is there a recommended way to do that?
