Embedded Cassandra for Integration testing
I know people have been successful embedding Cassandra, and I've seen code
for how to bootstrap it, but I'm wondering what people have done to manage
its 3rd party dependencies at build time? Especially for Maven projects,
Cassandra is highly uncooperative as a dependency, as many of its 3rd party
dependencies have no Maven repository source, and the Cassandra POM has been
orphaned.

Here is an util class from the Akka test suite, embedding Cassandra:
import org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon
object EmbeddedCassandraService {
System.setProperty("storage-config", "src/test/resources");
val cassandra = new Runnable {
val cassandraDaemon = new CassandraDaemon
cassandraDaemon.init(null)
def run = cassandraDaemon.start
}
// spawn cassandra in a new thread
val t = new Thread(cassandra)
t.setDaemon(true)
t.start
def start: Unit = {}
}

I have a writeup just for that from a while ago
http://prettyprint.me/2010/02/14/running-cassandra-as-an-embedded-service/
This addresses version 0.5.0, not 0.6 but I believe the diff isn't that big.
And as mentioned, you may also browse hector to get the list of
dependencies. Please also see

Thanks Tom; I am working with 0.6 beta2 now, so not immediately applicable,
but this is helpful.
Maybe we ought to consider taking what you've done and putting it up in a
generic way accessible on a public repo.

Hi Ryan,
I have been running some tests locally, and I've been using.
http://github.com/rantav/hector
If you look at the pom.xml you can get a pretty good idea of the
dependencies required to run a cassandra client for version 5. I usually
combine it with the maven one jar to create one jar file required for my
testing. Note hector has not been upgraded to v6.
For version 6, I suspect that we can yank the dependences out the
ant/pom.xml file to determine the runtime jars needed.
