You should be able to verify the database tables changing after running the jun
it
tests.


Create a POM with these jars and use this to drive the download and setup.


Test Maven on simple project first.

1)

download the m2eclipse maven plugin.

2)

Create a java project. You can change this to a JPA project later by adding a
project facet.

Project>>Project Facets, the wizard will tell you which facets
you need to add, if there are dependencies

3)

Maven>>Enable Dependencies. This brings up a wizard which will create a
pom.xml for you.

4)

You may
have to add the maven2 repositories.

All of the ma
ven
plugin
information is available from the free online sonatype book. Repositories are
here(

).

Verify you have
the current

repository online.

Window>>Show View>>Other

After working through the wizard you should see a list of your local and
global repositories.


If you have current jars which aren’t in the maven2
repository you can add them to
your local repository.
