Here is the relevant part of my POM:

<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ibm.websphere.j2ee</groupId>
<artifactId>j2ee</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Here is the arquillian.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<arquillian xmlns="http://www.jboss.org/arquillian-1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.jboss.org/arquillian-1.0 http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian/arquillian-1.0.xsd">

<property name="remoteServerSoapPort">8880</property>
<property name="securityEnabled">false</property>
<property name="username">nicolas</property>
</configuration>
</container>
</arquillian>

And here is my unit test:

@RunWith(Arquillian.class)
public class TestXSDValidationArquillian
{
private static final Logger slf4jLogger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(TestXSDValidationArquillian.class);

@Deployment
public static Archive<?> createTestArchive()

{ slf4jLogger.info("Loading pom.xml"); PomEquippedResolveStage mavenResolver = Maven.resolver().loadPomFromFile("pom.xml"); slf4jLogger.info("pom.xml loaded. Now importing dependencies"); File[] libs = mavenResolver.importRuntimeAndTestDependencies().resolve().withTransitivity().asFile(); slf4jLogger.info("Dependencies loaded. Creating web archive"); WebArchive war = ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "arquillian-test.war"); slf4jLogger.info("Web archive created. Now, adding files to the archive"); for (File file : libs) war.addAsLibrary(file); slf4jLogger.info("Web archive created"); return war; }

@Test
public void test1(){}
}

What might be the problem here ? Many thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
