> deployInternal() in ArchiveDeployer (from arquillian/) walks back along the chain of initialCause exceptions to attach the root cause to the thrown exception, presumably in an attempt to reduce the clutter in the output.
> The way it does so is incorrect and will always result in rootCause=null. I think that it should just attach "ex" as-is, but if stripping the intermediate exceptions is what is desired, then the while condition should be "rootCause != null && rootCause.getCause() != null", so that it extracts the last one.
