As we've been emphasizing, this test is going to run inside of a container. That means you have to have a container running somewhere. While you can execute tests in an embedded container or a Java SE CDI environment, we're going to start off by testing using the real deal.

If you haven't already, download the latest version of JBoss AS 6.0 from the JBoss AS download page, extract the distribution and start the container.

Next, we're going to return to pom.xml to add another dependency. Arquillian picks which container it's going to use to deploy the test archive and negotiate test execution using the service provider mechanism, meaning which implementation of the DeployableContainer SPI is on the classpath. We'll control that through the use of Maven profiles. Add the following profiles to pom.xml:

<profiles>
   <profile>
      <id>jbossas-remote-6</id>
      <dependencies>
         <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.container</groupId>
            <artifactId>arquillian-jbossas-remote-6</artifactId>
            <version>${arquillian.version}</version>
         </dependency>
		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.jboss.jbossas</groupId>
			<artifactId>jboss-as-client</artifactId>
			<version>6.0.0.Final</version>
			<type>pom</type>
		</dependency>
      </dependencies>
   </profile>
</profiles>

You would setup a similar profile for each Arquillian-supported container in which you want your tests executed.

All that's left is to execute the tests. In Maven, that's easy. Simply run the Maven test goal with the jbossas-remote-6 profile activated:

mvn test -Pjbossas-remote-6

You should see that the two tests pass.

The tests are passing, but we don't see a green bar. To get that visual, we need to run the tests in the IDE. Arquillian tests can be executed using existing IDE plugins for JUnit and TestNG, respectively, or so you've been told. It's once again time to prove it.
