Ok, I see. Yes, we don't deploy a bunch of default destinations in jboss5. All jms tests deploy what they need at the start. The JmsDestinationUnitTestCase creates destinations so its not depending on existing destinations. There are two queues in the deploy/messaging/destinations-service.xml deployment, DLQ, ExpiryQueue. I'll update the JmsDestinationUnitTestCase to query those. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4134984#...
