I finally got Eclipse to work with my junit test and JPA - i.e. Hibernate. I did the following

• Add the conf folder as source folder - in order to capture persistence xml - right click project -> properties -> Java Build Path -> add folder
  
• Unchecked Build > Build automaticaly
• Added ALL my entity models to persistence.xml
• <class>models.User</class>
  
• ...
• Compiled everything
• Added a fake application with entity manager attached to the thread:

app = Helpers.fakeApplication(); 

Helpers.start(app);

em = JPA.em("default");

JPA.bindForCurrentThread(em);

em.getTransaction().begin();

 

Note that eclipsify do not add conf as a source folder. As a consequence it is likely that re-running eclipsify will erase the above configuration.

Hope this will benefit others.
