https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7916 https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7771 The EmbeddedAS libraries are now a part of the AS distribution, along with ShrinkWrap. All are available under $JBOSS_HOME/common/lib. Users wishing to take advantage of JBossAS via these APIs in an existing runtime are now free to do so without any additional downloads. In addition, I've added the "embedded" module to AS; its purpose is to provide the build with an Integration TestSuite running in Embedded mode. This acts as a guard; if it fails the Hudson build job for AS6 will not continue, and the distribution will not be installed into any local or remote Maven repos. To run the EmbeddedAS testsuite, use "mvn install -Pembedded". The "embedded" profile is disabled by default so we don't impact regular build time too adversely, but IMO any incoming commits should run this *and* smoke-tests before making it upstream. The Hudson QA job has been altered to use this profile when building. In addition, this now opens the door to us using Embedded testing as a tool for ourselves. For instance we can take advantage of sharing memory between the test and the application server by using locks, barriers, latches, and pass-by-reference. The existing integration test passes through some JEE techs: http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/embedded/src/test/java/org/j...
