Various embodiments of systems and methods for validating Structured Query Language (SQL) queries in a database-accessing software application during application development are described herein. In some embodiments, an SQL query can be copied, during debugging of the software application, from a program editor used to define the software application into an SQL console that facilitates modifying and executing the query and displays data resulting from the execution of the query. Upon developer validation of the SQL query, the validated query may be copied back into the software application to substitute the original query. The SQL query may include one or more unresolved parameters that can be resolved by the SQL console via access to memory in which the software application is executed during debugging.
