You have to cover some basic points like; availability and connectability to the db,
available db access credentials, permisions and privilages required, connection timeout etc and some advanced/project related areas like; updation of db after changes on UI, db constraints functioning, fourceful breach of db constraints, trying to access UI after manual abortion of db connectivity etc. :eek

To write testcases for backend testing provide the following things:
in details: objective, Preconditions( required tools, uid,pwd to connect schema)
In Teststeps: you can write your sql queries in description, sample output in expected results.

As part of backend testing we will verify data constraints, calculations, business rules.

In Database testing you need to know your databases. It's not enough to connect to the right database but the information has to be stored in the same way. You can use SQL + Desktop Intelligence ( which is part of BO.). You must test for data types and data lengths.
