| Query goal: | Find derived tables (views and materialized views) that contain both DISTINCT and GROUP BY. Make sure that the means for removing duplicate rows from the query result are not duplicated. |
| Notes about the query: | In the returned subquery of view/materialized view the query replaces each newline character with the line break (br) tag for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser. |
| Query type: | Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design) |
| Query reliability: | Low (Many false-positive results) |
