Desired output with given table data

Hi I have a table test its structure is given below:

**Testing**

  PK    C1    c2  
 ---------------
 1      v11  v12
 2      v21  v23
 3      v31  v32

Now I need to query this table (testing) such that I get the below output.

 Pk  Key value 
---------------
 1    c1    v11
 1    c1    v12
 2    c2    v21
 2    c2    v22
 3    c3    v31
 3    c3    v32

Can this been possible with sql query in Oracle 11g ,Is it possible with PIVOT feature in 11g?

No, it can't be done with PIVOT, but it can be done with UNPIVOT:

SELECT
  Pk,
  "Key",
  value
FROM Testing
UNPIVOT (
  value FOR "Key" IN (C1, C2)
)

And when UNPIVOT is unavailable, I often unpivot like this:

SELECT
  t.Pk,
  x."Key",
  CASE x."Key"
    WHEN 'C1' THEN t.C1
    WHEN 'C2' THEN t.C2
  END AS value
FROM Testing t
CROSS JOIN (
  SELECT 'C1' AS "Key" FROM DUAL UNION ALL
  SELECT 'C2' FROM DUAL
) x
