comment How do I execute an Oracle SQL script without sqlplus hanging on me?
Why do you want the script to run without user interaction? Is it so that another script after it will also run or so an OS process will run when the script completes? Knowing your goal will help devise the best plan.

comment How to design this database to avoid cyclic dependency?
@ypercube Indeed it does; not sure how I got that wire crossed. To be clear you probably shouldn't create an Events table even though it does remove the cyclic dependency.

comment How to design this database to avoid cyclic dependency?
Removing the constraints removes the cyclic dependency from the definition, but not the design. You could add an Events table to record the UserID and AddressID that last created or modified the address, but that just moves the dependency one step further away. Going the other way, if the User table had CreatedBy and ModifiedBy columns, the cyclic dependency would exist in one table. This is similar to an employee table with a supervisor column where the supervisor is also an employee. As Phil indicated - Not a problem.

comment Testing AFTER INSERT Trigger
Phil is correct. In addition, you should almost always prefer constraints to triggers. You should also consider having triggers call packages to do the bulk of the functionality. Unlike triggers, packages can be compiled natively and are significantly easier to unit test. You would still need to test the trigger, but the tests would be better focused.
