Unittest Scenario creates new database

[dschulten]

I use an in-memory H2 in Postgres mode with lower case names (as recommended by H2), defined in my src/main/resources/application.yml, which gets its schema definition via Liquibase:

# replaces application.yml in tests
spring:
  datasource:
    # no db name so each test gets its own db
    url: jdbc:h2:mem:;MODE=PostgreSQL;DATABASE_TO_LOWER=TRUE;DEFAULT_NULL_ORDERING=HIGH
    username: sa
    password:
  liquibase:
    change-log: classpath:/db/changelog/db.changelog-master.yml
    enabled: true

The test log shows that Liquibase defines the database schema, and my tests can use that database when interacting with my domain classes.

But when I trigger events using Scenario#publish, the corresponding @ApplicationModuleListener method gets called, yet in that context the database is empty. Error message:

Caused by: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLSyntaxErrorException: Tabelle "mandant" nicht gefunden (diese Datenbank ist leer)
Table "mandant" not found (this database is empty); SQL statement:
SELECT "mandant"."id" AS "id", "mandant"."schluessel" AS "schluessel", "mandant"."bezeichnung" AS "bezeichnung" FROM "mandant" WHERE "mandant"."schluessel" = ? [42104-232]
	at org.h2.message.DbException.getJdbcSQLException(DbException.java:514) ~[h2-2.3.232.jar:2.3.232]

I know that application events for @ApplicationModuleListener methods are processed in a separate thread and transaction. But I am not sure if this can or should cause the entire schema definition to get rolled back.

So here is my question: How can I convince Scenario tests to use the same database as the test class where the scenario instance is used to publish events?

NOTE: I use an H2 database without database name because each test must use its own db. That is necessary since Liquibase executes this command for each test:

create table DATABASECHANGELOG

which fails starting from the second test with an error message that a table with lowercase name databasechangelog already exists.

It is possible that my setup leads to the described effects.
