The execution of an Arquillian test (an empty test) takes more than 5 minutes. here is the 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(){}

}}

An here is the console output:

As one may see, test starts at 11:09:59 and finishes at 11:14:39 and takes 291.094 seconds. I have googled and found some posts concerning the metadata-complete="true" that I added to my web.xml, as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="3.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" metadata-complete="true"/>

but it didn't help. It seems to be related to the IBM Java 6 but this is the JVM that one is supposed to use with IBM WebSphere. Any idea of what might be the problem here ?

Kind regards,
Nicolas DUMINIL
