minha classe teste:

package br.com.alura.loja.testes;

import java.math.BigDecimal;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory;
import javax.persistence.Persistence;

import br.com.alura.loja.modelo.Produto;

public class CadastroDeProduto {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Produto celular = new Produto();
        celular.setNome("Xiami");
        celular.setDescricao("Muito legal");
        celular.setPreco(new BigDecimal("800"));

        EntityManagerFactory factory = Persistence
                .createEntityManagerFactory("loja_virtual");
        EntityManager em = factory.createEntityManager(); 
        em.persist(celular);
    }

}

Se alguem puder me ajudar, agradeço!
