I’m attempting to create a JUnit test for my DAO object. The JUnit is ran directly from Netbeans. I’m quite new to several of these technologies, and as a result I’m having a heck of a time tracing down where my errors are coming from. My code and the corresponding error that I’m seeing are:

    }
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    This took a long time to figure out. I think the overall lesson here is to learn only one new technology at a time. I’ve provided the series of steps I took to get my JUnits to run, but overall it was several mistakes that were resolved by RTFM.

    To give credit where it is due, these resources helped tremendously.

    1. http://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/embedded_database_for_netbeans_platform
    2. http://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-crud.html
    3. Eclipslink – Unknown entity type

    I started by recreating my database service using the first resource. This involved recreating each table and reestablishing the foreign key dependencies (annoying, but necessary).

    I then followed the second tutorial to have netbeans automatically generate an Entity from my database table. My entity required no changes, but this did cause Netbeans to generate a persistence.xml. I compared it against my own, and came up with with this segment:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <persistence version="2.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
      <persistence-unit name="LabelDAOIJTest" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider</provider>
        <class>waylon.label.Label</class>
        <exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes>
        <properties>
          <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:derby:Waylon;create=true"/>
          <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="app"/>
          <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver"/>
          <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="app"/>
          <property name="eclipselink.ddl-generation" value="drop-and-create-tables"/>
        </properties>
      </persistence-unit>
    </persistence>
    

    The big changes here are:

    1. The change in
    2. The change in connection string (this is to point to the in memory DB I setup).
    3. Setting the ddl-generation property to “drop-and-create-tables”.

    Finally, my unit test ran, hooray! Just to round things out, there were errors in my production code (because I’m a total beginner at JPA). The changes I made were to LabelDAOImpl.java. I learned that SELECT * doesn’t work in JPA 🙂

    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     */
    @Override
    public List<Label> getAllLabels() throws Exception {
        TypedQuery<Label> typedQuery = em.createQuery(
                "SELECT x FROM Label x", Label.class );
        return typedQuery.getResultList();
    }
