I would look into NDBUnit so that you can create repeatability in your
tests by making your DB in a consistent state for each test. And even
thinking about using an in memory database (sqlite) for your tests.

I have tried mocking out session and criteria and it is just too
painful in most cases. I found that using NDBUnit allows me to test my
repository layer in a way that works for me.
