Yes. However, it is not the best test. SQLLoader generates a log file with information on the processing, including the number of records read and loaded. Since SQLLoader is by default designed to reject some records ( default is 50?), it is possible for the program to run to completion, yet not load all the records.

Check out the manual -- there are good case studies.
