This one shows AltSql Restore 0.5.0 passing a backup it should have failed, because that&rsquo;s what the recorded run says, and because the way the backup was made is common enough to matter.</p> <p>The database is Chinook, the public sample database of a digital music store, as its project ships it for SQLite: one file of 1,007,616 bytes with 11 tables and 12 indexes. In this test an application keeps it as <code>app/chinook.db</code> in SQLite&rsquo;s default journal mode, and the nightly backup is a plain <code>cp</code> of that file. Every night ended with <code>altsql-restore</code> checking the copy, and with SQLite&rsquo;s own <code>PRAGMA integrity_check</code> run on the same copy for comparison. The three nights ran one after another on 31 October 2026.</p>
