Hey guys,
i'm working on a project in which i use JPA, Hibernate and all this stuff for the first time and i ran into problem with transactions not being commited. I use class User which looks like this:
 package org.tomasherman.JBTBackup.Resource.Entity;
import javax.persistence.*;
import java.io.Serializable;
@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private int id;
    private String login;
    private String email;
    private String password;
    private int credit;
    public User() {
    }
    public User(String login, String email, String password, int credit) {
        setLogin(login);
        setEmail(email);
        setPassword(password);
        setCredit(credit);
    }
    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getLogin() {
        return login;
    }
    public void setLogin(String login) {
        this.login = login;
    }
    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }
    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }
    public String getPassword() {
        return password;
    }
    public void setPassword(String password) {
        this.password = password;
    }
    public int getCredit() {
        return credit;
    }
    public void setCredit(int credit) {
        this.credit = credit;
    }
}
and use HSQL database to persist it in MEMORY table. The persistence.xml file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence-unit name="JBTBackupPersistance">
    <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
    <class>org.tomasherman.JBTBackup.Resource.Entity.User</class>
    <properties>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.url" value="jdbc:hsqldb:file:./database/database.hsql"/>
        <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect"/>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class" value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver"/>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.username" value="SA"/> <!--default hsql login-->
        <property name="hibernate.connection.password" value=""/>
        <property name="hibernate.archive.autodetection" value="class"/>
        <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true"/>
        <property name="hibernate.format_sql" value="true"/>
        <property name="connection.shutdown" value="true"/>
    </properties>
</persistence-unit>
and test it in JUnit test which looks like this:
package org.tomasherman.JBTBackup.Resource.Entity;
import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory;
import javax.persistence.Persistence;

 */
public class UserTest {
    private EntityManagerFactory emf;
    private EntityManager em;
    private final User u1 = new User("and","now","for",1234);
    private final User u2 = new User("something","completely","different",123123123);
    private final User u3 = new User("a","man","with",123123123);
    @Before
    public void initEmfAndEm() {
        emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("JBTBackupPersistance");
        em = emf.createEntityManager();
    }
    @After
    public void cleanup() {
        em.close();
    }
    @Test
    public void emptyTest() {
        System.out.println(em.createQuery("from User").getResultList().size());
        if(em.getTransaction().isActive()){
            System.out.println("FFfffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU");
            System.out.println("FFfffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU");
            System.out.println("FFfffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU");
            System.out.println("FFfffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU");
            System.out.println("FFfffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU");
        }else{
            em.getTransaction().begin();
            em.persist(u1);
            em.persist(u2);
            em.persist(u3);         
        em.getTransaction().commit();
        }
        System.out.println(em.createQuery("from User").getResultList().size());
    }
}
Now the problem is that the insert is quite often not written into the database. The output of test looks like this:
    ...some hibernate stuff...
Hibernate: 
    select
        user0_.id as id0_,
        user0_.credit as credit0_,
        user0_.email as email0_,
        user0_.login as login0_,
        user0_.password as password0_ 
    from
        users user0_
20
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        users
        (id, credit, email, login, password) 
    values
        (null, ?, ?, ?, ?)
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        users
        (id, credit, email, login, password) 
    values
        (null, ?, ?, ?, ?)
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        users
        (id, credit, email, login, password) 
    values
        (null, ?, ?, ?, ?)
Hibernate: 
    select
        user0_.id as id0_,
        user0_.credit as credit0_,
        user0_.email as email0_,
        user0_.login as login0_,
        user0_.password as password0_ 
    from
        users user0_

so the entites are in the memory of the database, but when i check the database after the unit test, there are no data. It, however, gets committed from time to time.
If anyone could help me, it would be fantastic.
EDIT: in case it would help anyone, there is a list of libraries versions(in maven format):

UPDATE2: Another interesting thing, it seems that if i add Thread.sleep(1000); at the end of the test, all transactions get committed. Could it be that the program finishes faster then the database can be update?
