It looks like the project is already doing that. The test file starts with

```elixir
defmodule Project.Module do
    use Project.ModelCase

```

And in `model_case.ex` we’ve got

```elixir
  setup tags do
    :ok = Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.checkout(Project.Repo)

    unless tags[:async] do
      Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.mode(Project.Repo, {:shared, self()})
    end

    :ok
  end

```

So since `:async` isn’t included in the `use` line I believe that means we’re using shared mode, so any process should be able to connect to the DB connection.
