Introduction

The dbunit-migration-maven-plugin is a tool to migrate a collection of DBUnit data set files from one database schema version to another with the use of Flyway and testcontainers.

Currently, it supports the following dataset types:

  • XML
  • Flat XML
  • XLS (Excel)
  • CSV
  • SQL insert scripts

How it works?

The overall process the plugin implements is:

  1. Start a clean database with testcontainers.
  2. Use Flyway to migrate the database to the version the dataset files are based on.
  3. Load a dataset into the database.
  4. Let Flyway migrate the database to a target version.
  5. Extract the database to a dataset file.
  6. Repeat for all dataset files.
