问题
My primary reason for this is to keep track of database schema changes for my application. In SQL Server Management Studio I am able to generate a create script which creates the database but it doesn't contain any test data. Ideally when the script is run it should DROP the existing database (assuming it already exists) and then recreating it using this new script containing schema changes and test data from my development machine.
So how can I generate a script that will create a database with all the tables, stored procs, triggers, views, test data, etc?
I've tried using the import/export functionality but that's no good because it doesn't seem to copy over stored procedures. Plus it would be nice to have a script so I can track changes to the schema using mercurial.
I am using SQL Server Express 2008 R2 along with SQL Server Management Studio.

I wrote an open source command line utility named SchemaZen that does this. It's much faster than scripting from management studio and it's output is more version control friendly. It supports scripting both schema and data.
To generate scripts run:
schemazen.exe script --server localhost --database db --scriptDir c:\somedir
Then to recreate the database from scripts run:
schemazen.exe create --server localhost --database db --scriptDir c:\somedir

Watch out for difference in database collation. If you develop on a database with a case insensitive collation and try and run the SSMS generated scripts against as database with a case sensitive collation then errors in case will break the scripts.

Try Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard. This is a powerful flexible tool for scripting schema / data rom SQL Server.

Personally I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Database Project with a Source Control Repository (SVN) to track changes to the schema.

Usually i make backups fom a database before start a new development on it.
the best way is restore the backup when needed, i don't know how to get it by the script way!
