From Oracle's website: All software downloads are free, and each comes with a Development License that allows you to use full versions of the products only while developing and prototyping your applications (or for strictly self-educational purposes). So there is no reason a developer can't install Oracle for testing. At work, our product uses Oracle so we install it all the time in VMWare, all the workstations, etc. When in tech support here, I had to tell a lot of customers they can install Oracle on as many test systems as they want, it is just production systems that Oracle cares about. Actually installing and configuring Oracle is a different matter if you are not familiar with it, but I think the defaults should be decent for testing. Also, if you are developing off a computer with limited resources, you may not want to install Oracle. See here for their downloads overview and the database download page: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/index.html http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/index.html If everyone already knew this, I apologize, but like I said, I see a lot of people saying they don't have access to it.
