Testing jpa part

[Olivier Scalbert]

Hello,

I am currently developing a JSF web app that uses services provided by a stateless session bean, that acts as a facade.
This session bean delegates to different pojos.
One of these pojos encapsulates all the JPA stuff. It uses an injected Persistent Context
@PersistenceContext(unitName = "myPU")
Everything work fine.

Now I would like to do some testing around this JPA pojo.
I woulld to use junit as all my other pojos are tested with junit.
But how can I do that ?
From my tests (out of container), how can I create a persistent manager based on the persistent unit name ?
I am using netbeans + glassfish.

Thanks for your help,

Olivier,

Have you looked into embedded GlassFish? It can be used inside JUnit.
