Standalone Java Client for JBoss AS 7.1.1: Maven and JUnit Edition

In previous post, Standalone Java Client for JBoss AS 7.1.1, I showed a hand-written project of standalone client in JBoss AS 7. In this post, I will rewrite it as a maven project with JUnit and jboss-as-maven-plugin. The result is project jboss-as-7-client at github.

The steps are slightly different than the handwritten edition:

1, start JBoss AS and add users:
cd $JBOSS_HOME
./standalone.sh
./add-user.sh (user name: test, password: 1234)

2, "mvn clean install" will build the project, package and deploy the ejb jar to JBoss AS 7, and run the standalone client test.

3, if the ejb jar is already deployed in JBoss AS, step 2 will forcefully overwrite it. If you want to undeploy the ejb jar, run
mvn jboss-as:undeploy
