Hi Flavia, Can I just confirm a few things about my setup; 1. I would have thought the following pointcut would have worked | <aspect class="com.ecebs.unittest.aop.aspect.ExceptionInjector" scope="PER_CLASS" /> | | <bind pointcut="call(public void com.ecebs.unittest.aop.ExampleManagerBean->createObject(..)) | AND withincode(public void com.ecebs.unittest.aop.ExampleManagerBeanTest->testCreateObject_MultefileException())"> | <advice name="throwMultefileException" aspect="com.ecebs.unittest.aop.aspect.ExceptionInjector" /> | </bind> Just to explain what I have done ExampleManagerBean - session bean under test ExampleManagerBeanTest - junit test So pointcut is saying "if createObject method in session bean is called from within the junit test then execute aspect - ExceptionInjector" Is my understanding correct? I still can't get the aspect to be executed! View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4225870#...
