-------------------------------------------------------------

I ran into this error using arquillian-tomcat-embedded with Tomcat 7.0.52 and 8.0.28. It appears that a change was made to the which classloader is used by default for Tomcat versions after 7.0.50:

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55943
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/changelog.html#Tomcat 7.0.51 (violetagg)
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html#Class_Loader_Definitions

I was able to successfully work around the issue by adding the following line to context.xml: <Loader delegate="true"/>

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.7.Final, 1.1.8.Final, 1.1.9.Final, 1.1.10.Final, 1.1.11.Final
>         Environment: JDK7, Windows 7 x64, Linux x64

> Testing a WAR in embedded Tomcat >= 7.0.51 using Restassured, JUnit and Hamcrest matchers. (TestNG works fine).
> The test fails with this error message:
> {code}Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 3.404 sec <<< FAILURE! - in org.testing.web.TroubleIT
> testTrouble(org.testing.web.TroubleIT)  Time elapsed: 0.774 sec  <<< ERROR!
> java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method "com.jayway.restassured.specification.ResponseSpecification.statusCode(Lorg/hamcrest/Matcher;)Lcom/jayway/restassured/specification/ResponseSpecification;" the class loader (instance of org/apache/catalina/loader/WebappClassLoader) of the current class, org/testing/web/TroubleIT, and the class loader (instance of sun/misc/Launcher$AppClassLoader) for resolved class, com/jayway/restassured/specification/ResponseSpecification, have different Class objects for the type cification.statusCode(Lorg/hamcrest/Matcher;)Lcom/jayway/restassured/specification/ResponseSpecification; used in the signature
> 	at org.testing.web.TroubleIT.testTrouble(TroubleIT.java:35)
> {code}
> This error can be resolved in four different ways:
> - Rewrite the test using TestNG
> - Rewrite the test without using any Hamcrest matchers.
> - Remove "org.hamcrest" from {{org.jboss.arquillian.junit.container.JUnitDeploymentAppender}}.
> - Set {{@Deployment(testable = false)}} to prevent Arquillian from packaging its artifacts into the deployment in the first place.
