Answer 1

Put the following into src/test/jetty/jetty-env.xml:

    
    jdbc/mydatasource
    
        
            jdbc:mysql://localhost/mydatabase?characterEncoding=utf8
            username
            password
        
    
    

Then modify Start.java to define the following properties:

System.setProperty("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.eclipse.jetty.jndi");
System.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "org.eclipse.jetty.jndi.InitialContextFactory");

And add the following configuration to the WebAppContext:

EnvConfiguration envConfiguration = new EnvConfiguration();
URL url = new File("src/test/jetty/jetty-env.xml").toURI().toURL();
envConfiguration.setJettyEnvXml(url);

bb.setConfigurations(new Configuration[]{ new WebInfConfiguration(), envConfiguration, new WebXmlConfiguration() });
