No, no enumerated list :( But, if you are using maven, try, for your test environment only, depending on org.jboss.embedded jboss-embedded, org.jboss.seam jboss-seam and that *should* be enough to run just JPA + EJB3. But take a look at the jboss-seam pom to see what dependencies Seam itself has (its fairly obvious what most are for). Remember that testing requires JBoss Embedded, *not* the jboss jar's we use to compile Seam (yes, this is a pita). SeamTest now bootstraps Embedded itself - I think the init() method isn't being called from your stack trace. We will try to get more examples of using Maven into Seam, but as this is quite a drastic change in Seam, we need JBoss Tools to be able to work with a maven structure first.
