What about using HSQLDB for such kind of test? If the SQL code involved 
in your test is not too bound to MYSQL dialect it could be a nice option 
because with that database you could create an in-memory instance (in my 
firm we normally test SQL code in that way)

Uhm... MYSQL Connector/J is GPL while vqwiki is LGPL..  don't know, I 
wouldn't want vqwiki GPL infected. Is this the case? I remember huge 
discussions about this subject in other mailing list...
