----------------------------------

I've got this working in BIGTOP-1222, marking as subsumed......

The strategy i went with was to use hsql to launch an embedded db at runtime, and then launch a sqoop job in the test.  

After the *Sqoop* job runs the embedded hsql server is stopped and shut down.

> Existing Sqoop tests contradict self-sufficiency of the integration testing paradigm. The tests require an axillary mysql server configuration. While it might be acceptable for an established infrastructure it clearly has the disadvantage for ad-hoc testing, where one needs to make sure that a specially configured mysql is available.
> Replacing mysql with H2 for the testing would solve the problem elegantly.
