Derby JUnit Helper is a utility to allow testing JDBC related code against Apache Derby embedded instances using JUnit version 4.x.
The library allows the user to configure an embedded Derby instance as an External Resource which can be added to a test class using the Rules annotation, with initialization scripts; and JUnit managing the initialization and de-initialization of the database instance.
The library also comes with some utilities to manage the running instance, running SQL scripts against the instance (or any derby instance for that matter), etc. More details are in the user documents.
