+==== Generating unique names for embedded databases
+
+Development teams often encounter errors with embedded databases if their test suite
+inadvertently attempts to recreate additional instances of the same database. This can
+happen quite easily if an XML configuration file or `@Configuration` class is responsible
+for creating an embedded database and the corresponding configuration is then reused
+across multiple testing scenarios within the same test suite (i.e., within the same JVM
+process) –- for example, integration tests against embedded databases whose
+`ApplicationContext` configuration only differs with regard to which bean definition
+profiles are active.
+
+The root cause of such errors is the fact that Spring's `EmbeddedDatabaseFactory` (used
+internally by both the `<jdbc:embedded-database>` XML namespace element and the
+`EmbeddedDatabaseBuilder` for Java Config) will set the name of the embedded database to
+`"testdb"` if not otherwise specified. For the case of `<jdbc:embedded-database>`, the
+embedded database is typically assigned a name equal to the bean's `id` (i.e., often
+something like `"dataSource"`). Thus, subsequent attempts to create an embedded database
+will not result in a new database. Instead, the same JDBC connection URL will be reused,
+and attempts to create a new embedded database will actually point to an existing
+embedded database created from the same configuration.
+
+To address this common issue Spring Framework 4.2 provides support for generating
+_unique_ names for embedded databases. To enable the use of generated names, use one of
+the following options.
+
+* `EmbeddedDatabaseFactory.setGenerateUniqueDatabaseName()`
+* `EmbeddedDatabaseBuilder.generateUniqueName()`
+* `<jdbc:embedded-database generate-name="true" ... >`
