function testMultiInsert() {
    $num_records_before = (int) db_query('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM {test}')->fetchField();
    $query = db_insert('test');
    $query->fields(array(
        'name' => 'Larry',
        'age' => '30',
    ));
    // We should be able to specify values in any order if named.
    $query->values(array(
        'age' => '31',
        'name' => 'Curly',
    ));
    // We should be able to say "use the field order".
    // This is not the recommended mechanism for most cases, but it should work.
    $query->values(array(
        'Moe',
        '32',
    ));
    $query->execute();
    $num_records_after = (int) db_query('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM {test}')->fetchField();
