You can control contexts as described in the Weld ref manual (this is a Weld only feature, not in CDI yet) -- http://docs.jboss.org/weld/reference/latest/en-US/html/contexts.html -- follow the instructions there to manually control the contexts.

However in general for the type of test you describe I generally would suggest using htmlunit or selenium as they give a much more realistic view of how your users interact with pages. "Unit" tests are more suitable for testing out your business logic.

I think Aslak does plan manual context control in Arquillian (but the approach from Weld above should work fine in Arquillian as well).
