title: Unit testing a Hibernate driven application?
body: <p>This may be a naive question, but I am new to both the junit and hibernate frameworks and I was wondering what the best way to go about unit testing an application that is largely calls to hibernate, or if it is even necessary to do so? </p>
  
  <p>What is the best practice here?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong><br>
  Spring seems to be the big suggestion here. Unfortunately this may be alittle too much to bite off for one project. Junit, Hibernate and Spring are all new to me, and while they are all technologies I want to get under my belt, I think trying to incorporate them all into one project may be too overwhelming for me.</p>
