The query fired is your validation query (and what is returned is what the
query specifies and whatever you specify in your query is what is
requested). In oracle you would probably have this as Select 1 from dual ,
in SQL server you can just have select 1 i.e. any dummy query that works. It
doesn't matter what the query returns, only that you don't get an exception.
