I just came across across "EmbedMongo" [1] which provides a

MongoDB embedded within an application. This is e.g. convenient for tests

Interesting. I think that could be a nice solution.
I've tried it out with a single test and it worked as expected.
Unfortunately MongoDB (the server) can't be retrieved as Maven dependency,
EmbedMongo thus retrieves the distribution via HTTP and stores it in
~/.embedmongo/. This only happens once during the first usage.
Sounds reasonable.
What do you think, would that be helpful to be used for the OGM
MongoDB
tests (it might well be that this or similar options have been discussed
before and I just missed that)?
I like the idea. AFAIK it has not been discussed so far.
