You're better off asking the Play! framework people.

If you want to investigate it from the database side, set log_statement='all' in postgresql.conf, reload or restart PostgreSQL, and run your test. Now examine the logs and trace what the framework did. Check to see if:

- It ever connects to PostgreSQL at all. You might be using an in-memory h2 or derby instance and just think you're using PostgreSQL

- It ever inserts any data

- It ever commits its transactions

If you confirm that it's getting its data into PostgreSQL, you then need to look and see if it's deleting it again by checking the log for DELETE and TRUNCATE statements.

It could also be re-creating your tables every time it runs. Check for "CREATE TABLE" statements.
