+### Using with Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox
+
+If you're using Casbin-Ex with Ecto and need to wrap operations in database transactions during testing, see our guide on [Testing with Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox and Transactions](guides/sandbox_testing.md).
+
+Key points:
+- Use `Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.mode(Repo, {:shared, self()})` for tests with transactions
+- Allow the EnforcerServer process to access your test's database connection
+- See the guide for complete examples and best practices

+# Testing with Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox and Transactions
+
+This guide explains how to use Casbin-Ex with `Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox` when you need to wrap Casbin operations in database transactions.
+
+## The Problem
+
+When using `Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox` in checkout mode (the default), database connections are restricted to the process that checked them out. The Casbin `EnforcerServer` runs in a separate process, which causes issues when:
+
+1. Your test wraps Casbin operations in a `Repo.transaction`
+2. The transaction locks the connection to the test process
+3. The `EnforcerServer` process cannot access the locked connection, even with `Sandbox.allow/3`
+
+This results in the error:
+```
+** (DBConnection.ConnectionError) could not checkout the connection owned by #PID<...>
+```
+
+## Solution: Use Shared Mode
+
+The recommended solution is to use Ecto's **shared mode** for tests that need to call Casbin within transactions:
+
+```elixir
+defmodule MyApp.RolesTest do
+  use MyApp.DataCase
+  use MyApp.CasbinCase
+
+  setup do
+    # Check out a connection
+    :ok = Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.checkout(MyApp.Repo)
+    
+    # Enable shared mode - this allows the EnforcerServer to use the connection
+    Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.mode(MyApp.Repo, {:shared, self()})
+    
+    # Allow the EnforcerServer process to access the connection
+    case Registry.lookup(Acx.EnforcerRegistry, "my_enforcer") do
+      [{enforcer_pid, _}] ->
+        Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.allow(MyApp.Repo, self(), enforcer_pid)
+      [] ->
+        :ok
+    end
+    
+    :ok
+  end
+
+  test "create role with permissions in transaction" do
+    permissions = [
+      %{resource: "orgs", action: "read"},
+      %{resource: "users", action: "read"}
+    ]
+
+    # This now works because of shared mode
+    assert {:ok, :created} = 
+      MyApp.Repo.transaction(fn ->
+        Enum.each(permissions, fn %{resource: resource, action: action} ->
+          case Acx.EnforcerServer.add_policy("my_enforcer", {:p, ["analyst", resource, action]}) do
+            :ok -> :ok
+            {:error, reason} -> MyApp.Repo.rollback(reason)
+          end
+        end)
+        
+        {:ok, :created}
+      end)
+  end
+end
+```
+
+## Important Notes
+
+### About Shared Mode
+
+- **Shared mode** allows multiple processes to access the same database connection
+- All tests in a module using shared mode will share the connection
+- This may reduce test isolation compared to the default checkout mode
+- It's still safe because each test gets a clean transaction that's rolled back
+
+### When to Use Shared Mode
+
+Use shared mode when you need to:
+- Wrap Casbin operations in application-level transactions
+- Test rollback behavior with Casbin
+- Test atomic operations that involve both Casbin and other database changes
+
+### Alternative Approaches
+
+If you don't need transactions in your tests, you can:
+
+1. **Avoid wrapping in transactions**: Call Casbin operations directly without `Repo.transaction`
+2. **Test transactions separately**: Test transaction logic separately from Casbin operations
+3. **Use async: false**: Use `async: false` to run tests serially with shared connections
+
+## Example Test Module
+
+Here's a complete example of a test module using shared mode:
+
+```elixir
+defmodule MyApp.Authorization.RolesTest do
+  use MyApp.DataCase, async: false  # async: false for shared mode
+  
+  alias MyApp.Repo
+  alias MyApp.Authorization.Roles
+  
+  setup do
+    # Set up sandbox in shared mode
+    :ok = Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.checkout(Repo)
+    Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.mode(Repo, {:shared, self()})
+    
+    # Allow EnforcerServer to access the connection
+    case Registry.lookup(Acx.EnforcerRegistry, "my_enforcer") do
+      [{pid, _}] -> Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.allow(Repo, self(), pid)
+      [] -> :ok
+    end
+    
+    :ok
+  end
+
+  test "creates role with permissions atomically" do
+    permissions = [
+      %{resource: "users", action: "read"},
+      %{resource: "users", action: "write"}
+    ]
+
+    # This transaction includes Casbin operations
+    result = Repo.transaction(fn ->
+      # Create database record
+      {:ok, role} = Roles.create_role_record("admin")
+      
+      # Add Casbin policies
+      Enum.each(permissions, fn perm ->
+        case Acx.EnforcerServer.add_policy(
+          "my_enforcer",
+          {:p, ["admin", perm.resource, perm.action]}
+        ) do
+          :ok -> :ok
+          {:error, reason} -> Repo.rollback(reason)
+        end
+      end)
+      
+      {:ok, role}
+    end)
+
+    assert {:ok, _role} = result
+  end
+
+  test "rolls back Casbin operations on error" do
+    result = Repo.transaction(fn ->
+      # Add a policy
+      :ok = Acx.EnforcerServer.add_policy(
+        "my_enforcer",
+        {:p, ["temp_role", "resource", "action"]}
+      )
+      
+      # Simulate an error
+      Repo.rollback(:simulated_error)
+    end)
+
+    assert {:error, :simulated_error} = result
+    
+    # Verify the policy was not persisted
+    policies = Acx.EnforcerServer.list_policies("my_enforcer", %{sub: "temp_role"})
+    assert policies == []
+  end
+end
+```
