Goal Find base table columns that have Boolean type and do not have NOT NULL constraint. Use two-valued logic (TRUE, FALSE) instead of three-valued logic (TRUE, FALSE, UNKNOWN). Because NULL in a Boolean column means unknown make all the Boolean columns mandatory.
Notes The query finds all base table columns that have the type Boolean and that are optional.
Type Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design)
Reliability High (Few or no false-positive results)

Fixing Suggestion Make the column mandatory by declaring NOT NULL constraint to it.
Data Source INFORMATION_SCHEMA only
SQL Query
SELECT A.table_schema, A.table_name , A.column_name
FROM information_schema.columns A INNER JOIN information_schema.tables T USING (table_schema, table_name)
INNER JOIN information_schema.schemata S ON A.table_schema=S.schema_name
WHERE A.data_type='boolean' 
AND is_nullable='YES' 
AND T.table_type='BASE TABLE'
AND (A.table_schema = 'public'
OR S.schema_owner<>'postgres')
ORDER BY A.table_schema, A.table_name, A.column_name;

SQL Query to Generate FixDescription
SELECT format('ALTER TABLE %1$I.%2$I ALTER COLUMN %3$I SET NOT NULL', A.table_schema, A.table_name , A.column_name) AS statements
FROM information_schema.columns A
INNER JOIN information_schema.tables T
ON A.table_schema = T.table_schema
AND A.table_name = T.table_name
INNER JOIN information_schema.schemata S
ON A.table_schema=S.schema_name
WHERE A.data_type='boolean' AND is_nullable='YES' AND T.table_type='BASE TABLE'
AND (A.table_schema = 'public'
OR S.schema_owner<>'postgres')
ORDER BY A.table_schema, A.table_name, A.column_name;
Apply the NOT NUL L constraint directly to the column.

NameDescription
Find problems about integrity constraintsA selection of queries that return information about the state of integrity constraints in the datadabase. Contains all the types of queries - problem detection, software measure, and general overview
Find problems automaticallyQueries, that results point to problems in the database. Each query in the collection produces an initial assessment. However, a human reviewer has the final say as to whether there is a problem or not .
