Hi,

I download the caveatemptor and able to set it up to run with MySql. But everytime, the unit test finishes, all the data in the database is gone. I read the "Hibernate In Action" book , i think I can change this behaviour by changing the "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" property in the hibernate.properties file to "update", but that still does not work. The data still gone after the unit test done executing.

Can someone please help me with this?


Hibernate version: 2.1.6

Name and version of the database you are using: MySQL

Set it to "create", this is documented in chapter 9.

Thank you for your response. I change "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" to 'create', but the all the tables still got removed after all the junit tests is done.

I specifically set a break point in the testAuditLog() of AuditTest, the point after it makes an Item persistent. i.e. after here:
itemDAO.makePersistent(item);

// Synchronize state to trigger interceptor
HibernateUtil.getSession().flush();

I can see the database has an entry for that new item. But after all the test are done, the table is removed. Can you give me more pointers please?

Thank you.

Uhm, check the TestCase superclass in the package, there might be a drop() in there. I don't remember right now and I'm too lazy to look. Somehow it was the easiest method to do trivial unit tests, so I never removed it. I also remember this was discussed here before.

Thanks a lot, you are correct. it is dropped in the tear-down of the test.
