Oracle Developper Testing on VAX

Can anybody help me for the following:
I work in a VAX VMS environment with an Oracle 7 database.
I need to test new versions of software.
The problem I have is with regression testing.
I am currently using DTM from DEC to record my tests and re-run
them automatically.
DTM compares the results of the re-run with the results of the original
test (it compares the screens).
The problem I have is that if one of my tests updates the Oracle database
I have to reset the database to the original state before re-runnig
the test otherwise I will have different results and DTM will report
the test as unseccessfull. In that case I do not know what the problem
is: a bug in the new software or just the fact that the database has
been updated.
It is possible to run a script before launching your test collection
which would reset the database.
Can anybody tell me how I can reset my database to the original state.
Is export-import the only solution? There are more than 60 tables in
the database so this could thake a while which is not very useful.
Is there any Oracle software or third-party software that would
allow me to do what I want?
Thanks for any help.
