Pull request overview
This pull request adds support for testing against SQL Server 2025 across Windows, macOS, and Linux CI pipelines. The changes introduce new matrix configurations and installation steps for SQL Server 2025, extending test coverage to the upcoming SQL Server release.
Key Changes:
- Added SQL Server 2025 matrix entries across all three platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) using Python 3.14
- Implemented SQL Server 2025 Express installation and setup steps for Windows pipeline
- Extended AdventureWorks2022 database restore and performance benchmarking to run on SQL Server 2025
- Modified macOS and Linux pipelines to pull and test against SQL Server 2025 Docker images

eng/pipelines/pr-validation-pipeline.yml:71
- Python 3.14 may not be available through the UsePythonVersion@0 task without additional configuration. The build pipeline in OneBranchPipelines/stages/build-windows-single-stage.yml shows that Python 3.14 requires special handling with NuGet downloads (lines 64-107) because "Microsoft hasn't added Python 3.14 to the standard Python registry yet". This PR validation pipeline uses UsePythonVersion@0 with a githubToken parameter at line 70, but doesn't include the special installation steps needed for Python 3.14. This will likely cause the pipeline to fail when trying to use Python 3.14.
SQLServer2025:
sqlVersion: 'SQL2025'
pythonVersion: '3.14'
LocalDB_Python314:
sqlVersion: 'LocalDB'
pythonVersion: '3.14'
steps:
- task: UsePythonVersion@0
inputs:
versionSpec: '$(pythonVersion)'
addToPath: true
githubToken: $(GITHUB_TOKEN)
displayName: 'Use Python $(pythonVersion)'
