You really do not need much in java you can use the embedded server. Hector wrap a simple class around thiscalled EmbeddedServerHelper

We only use this to test our "DAO" code which interacts with the Cassandra client. It basically starts up an embedded instance of cassandra and fools your client/driver into using it. It uses a non-standard port and you just need to make sure you can set the port as a parameter into your client code. > > https://github.com/jsevellec/cassandra-unit > > One important thing is to either clear out the keyspace in between tests or carefully separate your data so different tests don't collide with each other in the embedded database. > > Setup/tear down time is pretty reasonable. > > Ben > ________________________________ > From: Shahab Yunus [shahab.yu...@gmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2013 8:46 AM > To: user@cassandra.apache.org > Subject: Re: Unit Testing Cassandra > > Thanks Stephen for you reply and explanation.
