 *		
 *   Expected result:
 * 
 * >>>Database Connection Direct test.
 * URL = "jdbc:informix-
sqli://emily:1533/testDB:informixserver=emily3;user=rdtest;password=test"
 * >>>End of Database Connection Direct test.
 * >>>Database Connection Indirect test.
 * URL = "jdbc:informix-
sqli://emily:1533:informixserver=emily3;user=rdtest;password=test"
 * >>>End of Database Connection Indirect test.
