[jboss-as7-dev] JAX-RS test fails if AS not running; Do we want it that way?

[Sande Gilda]

Hi Ondrej,

The jax-rs-client quickstart is an Arquillian test only and expands on 
the /helloworld-rs/ quickstart.

The *Prerequisites* section of the README state that this quickstart 
depends on the deployment of the /helloworld-rs/ quickstart for its 
tests and explains how to verify that it deployed successfully.

The *Run the Arquillian Tests* section of the README states:

 1. Make sure you have started the JBoss Server as described above.
 2. Make sure the /helloworld-rs /quickstart has been deployed on the
    server as noted in the *Prerequisites* section above.
 3. Open a command line and navigate to the root directory of this
    quickstart.
 4.

    Type the following command to run the test goal with the following
    profile activated:

    |mvn clean test
    |

Do I need to modify the instructions somehow to make that more clear? 
Should I add a note that if you get an HTTP status: 404, it probably 
means you did not deploy the /helloworld-rs/ quickstart as noted in the 
*Prerequisites*?

I'm not a Maven expert, so I'm not sure how we could make this foolproof 
for the users. I am copying Pete and Blaine since they know a lot more 
about this than me.

Thanks,
Sande
