Hi Mike,
The ScifiBook.authors ereference is a one-to-many. So one book can have multiple authors but an
author can only write one book. In the test case the one author is added to both book1 and book2,
setting the second book2 will overwrite the reference to the first book (as the fk column is present
in the author table).
By adding the following annotation to the authors ereference:
@OneToMany(unique=false)
the relation is made a unidirectional many-to-many resulting in a join table. In this case the test
case passes fine.

Hi Martin,
Thanks - that was the problem with my model.
Actually, instead of the annotation, I just set the "Unique" property to
false in the Book's authors EReference.
