| Goal | Find as to whether the relationships between tables form a complete bidirected graph. Tables are vertices in the graph. There is a directed edge between two vertices if one of the tables refers to another through foreign key relationship on mandatory columns. |
|---|---|
| Notes | The query does not take into account the existence of tables that do not participate in any relationship - not as the referencing table nor as a referenced table. |
| Type | Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design) |
| Reliability | Medium (Medium number of false-positive results) |
