Suggest a JPA Unit test framework

Question

How to unit test JPA code? is there any way to generate Unit Test case itself?

Note: I am lazy and new to Unit Test code.

Answer 1

Check this out, Unitils. Here is a related discussion, with some example codes.

Here is the example, showing DBUnit, Spring and OpenJPA together. You might not using all, but this can take you somewhere if you want to go with DBUnit, I believe.

Answer 2

I'm in the middle of trying out OpenEJB (http://openejb.apache.org/) for my ongoing project. It's an embeddable container with support for EJB 3.0 (and partially 3.1). My first impression of it is fairly good.
