As of now, EmbeddedAS needs to point to a full Jboss 6.0 installation using ie $JBOSS_HOME.

What the "Automation via Maven" wiki explains is how to add a maven dependency so you don't have to pre-install a full jboss, maven will download and unpack it for you. But you still need to bootstap Embedded AS as a part of your test suite. As long as you do that, "mvn test" should work.

Arquillian on the other hand does the whole shebang for you.. and then some.. http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-14376

Right, right. We were thinking along the same lines there. The point is, right now, the embedded AS is meant to be booted by a test in some way.

That's a great step. But what would really score with developers is if you can do:

mvn jbas:run

Note the change from jboss to jbas. Personally, I think we should consider (maybe a vote) using this new abbreviation to help distinguish JBoss from JBoss AS. Just throwing it out there. If not, "jboss:run" will do.
