In the embedded jboss container the jndi path should be: "#{ejbName}/local". But because you defined the jndi "Fiat/#{ejbName}/local" in your seam.properties Seam can't find the object in the jndi. Do you have the components.xml in your WEB-INF directory? Because else Seam can't find it (I think..., I got it working that way). Also make sure that the right components.properties (with the "jndiPattern : #{ejbName}/local") is on the classpath of your test run. Good luck...
