Makes sense.
Seeing ValidationTest-AS7 brings something else to mind. Once upon a time, we were targeting both AS7 and WF8, and they had very different Hibernate Validator (HV) versions. In particular, AS7 had HV4, based on Bean Validation spec 1.0 and WF8 had HV5, based on Bean Validation spec 1.1. To accommodate both, I created an adaptation layer (GeneralValidator) and two submodules: resteasy-hibernatevalidator-provider for HV4 and resteasy-validator-provider-11 for HV5. We could deprecate resteasy-hibernatevalidator-provider now.

Folks, we have a bunch of JBoss AS7 specific tests in the project. I'm inclined to removing them on master, especially wherever they're duplicated by equivalent tests against WFLY. See for instance https://github.com/resteasy/Resteasy/pull/819, in particular https://github.com/resteasy/Resteasy/pull/819/commits/63a4f1a4603a675699fe27a41b3ed1481e855d0f . If you have any comment, please just let me know, otherwise I'll proceed later today. Generally speaking, moving forward, we should "support" the latest versions only of WildFly; for example, in JBossWS we test against the latest 3 released WildFly versions, plus current master. We could eventually do something similar in RESTEasy. Cheers Alessio
