The In-Memory Database Maven Plugin is a Maven plugin that can launch and shutdown an embedded in-memory SQL database within the Maven build life-cycle. During the launch the database can be seeded using DDL/DML scripts and/or DBUnit data sets.
The following database implementations are supported:
-
derby - An embedded/in-memory Apache Derby database.
-
h2 - An embedded/in-memory H2 database.
-
hsqldb - An embedded/in-memory HSQLDB database.
The following source file formats are supported:
-
.sql - Contains DDL/DML SQL commands to create the database structure and/or insert test data
-
.csv - A file containing a comma separated value (CSV) data set. The first row of the data set contains the column names and the file name corresponds to the table name.
-
.xml - A file containing a flat DBUnit XML data set.
-
.dbunit.xml - A file containing a DBUnit XML data set.
-
.xls - A Microsoft Excel spread sheet containing one or more work sheets. The name of the work sheet corresponds to the table name and the first row of each work sheet contains the column names.
The In-Memory Database Maven Plugin can be used to automate integration tests having a dependency on an external database server.
The POM here is from taken from the webapp integration test for the In-Memory Database Maven Plugin.
