I had some JUnit tests already written in my project which used to populate data in the setup method. Now I have added maven to my project and I want to execute all test cases form maven i.e. using mvn test. The problem now is that my data base is not cleared after every test class has run. I need to clear the HSQLDB after test cases of each class have run.

    1. You can clear the data by dropping the schema. The default schema is called PUBLIC. If you execute the SQL satement below, it will clear all data and drop all tables.

      DROP SCHEMA PUBLIC CASCADE

    2. Alternatively, if you need the table and schema object definitions, you can create a file: database containing the objects but no data, and add the property below to the .properties file. Using this type of database for tests, the changes to data are not persisted

      files_read_only=true

    3. The latest alternative, available in HSQLDB 2.2.6 and later allows you to clear all the data in a schema while keeping the tables. In the example below, the PUBLIC schema is cleared.

      TRUNCATE SCHEMA public AND COMMIT

      This statement has been enhanced in the latest versions of HSQLDB. See http://hsqldb.org/doc/2.0/guide/dataaccess-chapt.html#dac_truncate_statement under Truncate Statement
