Today I have received my hard copy of the book, Arquillian Testing Guide. Comparing to the resource I had got at the end of last year, much content are improved. Arquillian is a modern Java EE testing framework, based the well-known JUnit or TestNG, brought by JBoss.org. In fact, currently Arquillian is beyond Java EE, and not only for Java EE application and Java EE container, such as it also supports Android application test and can run test in Android system(or Android simulator) . Most of my Arquillian experience is based on Java EE. If you have some experience of JUnit experience before, and eager to find a testing solution for your Java EE application and want to run the test case in container automatically, this book is for you. With Arquillian, you are free from preparing the test fixture before you write real tests. You can write tests in the nature way, such as using @Inject, @Resource etc in your test case directly as the way in yo...

NetBeans 6.5 patch 2 is available now. As the release note declared , the previous JBoss 5 registration problem is fixed in this patch. This means You can add a JBoss Application Server in Services Windows directly , as you add other app server. 1. Start NetBeans 6.5 , and open the Services Windows. 2.Right click the "Server" node , select Add Server in context menu. Unfortunately, I got a NullPointerException. I try to do this in another way . Open Server manager from Tools->Servers menu , click add Server button and then encounter the same problem. This is a bug reported in NetBeans bugzilla , as report #123180 . It is awfully boring. Update: From the www.planetnetbeans.org , a blog entry named " NetBeans, JDK Update 12 and Server Registrati " reports the same problem. The reason is that NetBeans 6.5 runs on the newest JDK 6 update 12. I've just updated it to update 12. Downgrade jdk to update 11 or wait for the ...

JBoss 5 is GA for some days, but NetBeans 6.5 dose not support JBoss 5.0.0 GA. I use google and find the solution to fix the problem. Follow this blog entry, Registering JBoss 5.0 in NetBeans 6.5.

[hantsy@localhost jboss-5.0.0.GA]cd common/lib [hantsy@localhost lib]cp jboss-javaee.jar jboss.jar jbosssx.jar jmx-adaptor-plugin.jar jnpserver.jar log4j.jar ../../server/default/lib/ It is simple. Now you can add JBoss 5 to the Server node in NetBeans Services Windows. But I encountered another problem under Fedora 10. When I start JBoss 5 from NetBeans Service panel. It failed with the following error message. The transaction service port is used by another application.
