Question

I want my embedded ApacheDS to start up with a fresh schema/content when I run my tests. I tried to import a LDIF with this lines:

    LdifFileLoader ldifLoader = new LdifFileLoader(service.getAdminSession(), "path/to/my/export.ldif");
    ldifLoader.execute();

But now ApacheDS stores the information in a directory server-work in the current working directory. I had to manually delete the directory server-work every time and I wonder if that is the right way…

I exported the schema as LDIF too and I want to import it first. Can I import it with LdifFileLoader too? Or am I doing it in a wrong way at all?

Use DirectoryService#setWorkingDirectory(File) to change the working directory.

In your setUp() or tearDown() methods, you can then delete this directory.
