Hi Muhammet,
Have you had a chance to review the recently merged pull request [1]?
We've introduced a new feature allowing users to include ad hoc configurations
in the 'JdbcConnectionOptions' class.
```
new JdbcConnectionOptions.JdbcConnectionOptionsBuilder()
.withUrl(FakeDBUtils.TEST_DB_URL)
.withProperty("keyA", "valueA")
.build();
```
This provides flexibility by enabling users to specify additional configuration
parameters dynamically.
