automatically create a required tables.

In wp-config.php file
define('DB_NAME', 'database_name_here');
/** MySQL database username */define('DB_USER', 'username_here');
/** MySQL database password */define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password_here');
Change values in wp-config.php file
define('DB_NAME', 'test_db');
/** MySQL database username */define('DB_USER', 'root');
