Let's say you want to use 'npm install mssql --save' but can't get connected to your local server.

You probably need to check these things:

• Ensure you can connect manually through SQL Server management studio
• Provide connection info to clients by turning on mssql browser service
• Services > SQL Server Browser
• Check Sql Server Network Configuration
• Start > SQL Server Configuration Manager > SQL Server Network Configurations > enable TCP/IP
• On property tab of protocol ensure IP ALL has no dynamics and 1433 as port with 127.0.0.1 enabled
• Restart server instance

 {

 var databases = con.GetSchema("Databases");
 foreach (DataRow row in databases.Rows)
 {
 var databaseName = (String)row["database_name"];
 if (databaseName.Contains(MockPrefix))
 {
 var command = String.Format("ALTER DATABASE [{0}] SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE; DROP DATABASE [{0}]", databaseName);
 new SqlCommand(command, con).ExecuteNonQuery();
 Debug.WriteLine(String.Format("Removed : {0}", databaseName));
 }
 }

The precision of SYSDATETIME is in nanoseconds, the one for GETDATE is in miliseconds.

Just try for yourself: 

SELECT SYSDATETIME() fn_SysDateTime, GETDATE() fn_GetDate
