Not necessarily all the services the embedded container has to offer, just the 
persistence part.  It gives me more confidence in the unit test when I test 
against oracle.  When a dba applys changes adds/removes contraints/columns to 
our oracle schema, I really don't want to have to sync up each change and apply 
to hypersonic because its a maintenance headache trying to keep the DDL/DML 
synchronized - (at least I don't know of a way to auto-sync the schema changes 
between oracle and hypersonic).   I know you can use the entities themselves to 
create/drop the tables in hypersonic, but there are times we have to write 
native sql and or stored procedures to optimize performance.  If we are 
exclusively using the ORM layer for persistence, I guess we could use 
hypersonic for testNG and allow the create-drop feature in persistence.xml, but 
that would give us limited test coverage.
