Michael,
What is going to be there between test A, test B, test C are they going to be mile stones of one transaction or separate transaction. How the entities are related with each other. How the transactions are tracked. Does your application maintains history tables.
Is this rollback of schema an adhock request or a regular task, if regular task then you may require more than one interdace and mostly it will become a module. If its adhock request then it can be just a procedure.

Thanks...subodh

For example: starting from a base line - test A performed - rollback to baseline - test B performed - rollback to baseline - test C performed - rollback to baseline.****

There can be hundreds of tests and this needs to be easily managed and automated from the application.****

Would datapump and/or flashback database work for this type of regression testing?****

Thanks for your ideas.****
