title: What is the best way to launch HSQLDB for unit testing, when working with spring, maven and hibernate?
body: <p>In my project I can successfully test database code.  I'm using Spring, Hibernate, HSQLDB, JUnit and Maven.  </p>
  
  <p>The catch is that currently I have to launch HSQLDB manually prior to running the tests.  What is the best way to automate the launching of HSQLDB with the technologies being used?</p>
