[forge-dev] Help with RichFaces testing (FORGE-460)

[Lincoln Baxter, III]

Hey Richard,

I'm not suggesting you put it there. Unfortunately, this kind of test is
not going to be possible until we have what you suggested, which is an
arquillian container that deploys to an actual running forge distribution.

And that isn't going to happen in the near future, sorry. It's way too much
work when Final is on the close horizon. I'm not sure there are really any
good alternatives at the moment.

We could consider a CI job that would deploy the richfaces plugin, but
we'll need to think about what it means to deploy a plugin to a maven
repository (when it really has very little value being there except for
this purpose.)
