Persistence Layer Test Suite

The unit tests for the persistence layer create the database through ​Hibernate and then insert data into it, again using Hibernate. The resulting state of the database is verified by executing ​HQL queries. Where applicable, polymorphic HQL queries are tested as well.

The tests use the well-known unit testing framework ​Junit. Although developed against a local ​MySQL database, the tests are currently being remodeled such that they use an embedded ​McKoi database server; this removes the dependency of the test suite on a pre-installed external database server. Some peculiarities of McKoi are being accommodated, for instance it chokes if you try to create a table called "user".
