@After no longer runs within transaction boundaries since 1.1.7 --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ARQ-1925 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-1925 Project: Arquillian Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Extension - Transaction Affects Versions: transaction_1.0.1.Final, 1.1.7.Final Reporter: Emond Papegaaij Fix For: transaction_1.0.4 With the changes in TestLifecycleEvents introduced in Arquillian core 1.1.7, the @After junit methods no longer run within the transaction boundaries. In TransactionHandler.endTransactionAfterTest, first the transaction is ended and then the event proceeds, calling @After methods. I've created a pull request that switches these call, this fixes our testcases.
