== If using JDO/DataNucleus

When running integration tests through the IDE, and if using the JDO/DataNucleus ORM, then make sure the module(s) with entities have been enhanced first.

If using IntelliJ, we recommend creating a run Maven configuration that runs `datanucleus:enhance`, and then pinning the configuration once run as a tab in the "Debug" window for easy access.
