Re: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?
Take a look at some of the in memory Java databases. We use Hibernate with Hypersonic in test, and then switch to MSSQLServer in production very successfully.

I use HSQL DB (http://hsqldb.org/) for testing with both Kodo JDO and Hibernate. It works well and is very fast.

RE: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?
Funny you should mention that. I just stumbled upon this myself. Do you need to execute anything before hand to setup the hsqldb or do you just point the jdbc connection at it? -Original Message- From: Chris Richardson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 2:06 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?

Testing with another DB than the production one has its disadvantages too.

RE: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?
Agreed. The intent for my team is to be able to build and run automatic tests even if a db isn't installed. (or if it is, but maybe we don't want to wipe the data everybuild) When we build for a test environment, we would use a production db. -Original Message- From: Eduardo Rocha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 2:27 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?

You configure Hibernate/Kodo JDO to create the schema on startup and point the DataSource at hsqldb. Use the org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver with this URL: jdbc:hsqldb:mem:testdb - this connects to an in-memory database.

RE: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?
You would probably have to create the full schema. Fortunately with Kodo, it can create the classes as needed so we have a little control. -Original Message- From: Michael Heuer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Heuer Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 4:47 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: How to make self contained database dependant unit tests in maven 2?
