I agree with the approach. It's just that I need to stop the read-write 
server, and start it again in read-only mode, without losing the database.
For the moment, I managed to run read-only tests on the database I 
created "manually", that by testing the database functions, not by using 
a PR server client.

This being said, I now have non empty databases which I could use too 
for read-only tests. No problem to generate one of them at every new 
test series, provided I don't get an empty  database again.

I'll continue later if I can, because my priority before the end of the 
month is the image upgrade tests.
Cheers
Michael.
