    I also wrote a small test script:
    
    ```
    from db import Database
    
    db = Database(username='root', password='XXXX')
    
    try:
        db.testConnection()
        print("Succes!")
    except:
        raise
    ```
    
    The result:
    
    ```
    wido@wido-laptop:~/repos/cloudstack/python/lib/cloudutils$ python smallthin.py 
    Succes!

>
> Our current Python scripts depend on MySQLdb for MySQL connections.
> The best way to go is the native mysql.connector which implements the MySQL protocol in native Python instead of depending on external libraries.
> It would be best if we drop MySQLdb and use mysql.connector since that also supports Python 3.
