Looks like it's not. The WAR is here just for Alpha1 
https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public/org/keycloak/keycloak-server/1.0-alpha-1-12062013/ 
but not for later releases, which looks like a bug IMO. Can you create 
JIRA for it? I think it won't be bad if release will include all the 
artifacts including docs and distribution stuff (like WAR and full 
Wildfly appliance)

Maybe it will be interesting for you that we have integration testsuite 
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/tree/master/testsuite/integration . 
This testsuite is using embedded Undertow server and it programmatically 
deploys Keycloak server on it. You can take a look at KeycloakServer 
class and also at individual tests to see how it works. The point is 
that it's embedded, so test classes have access to 
KeycloakSessionFactory inside KeycloakSetup actions and so they can 
directly use the model API to setup needed things.

For example in LoginTest, you can see that there is some setup action, 
which creates new user with usage of Keycloak model API: 
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/blob/master/testsuite/integration/src/test/java/org/keycloak/testsuite/forms/LoginTest.java#L54 
and then there is selenium test, which verifies that this user is able 
to login: 
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/blob/master/testsuite/integration/src/test/java/org/keycloak/testsuite/forms/LoginTest.java#L114

Maybe you can reuse some parts of our testsuite and programmaticaly 
deploy Keycloak server in similar way like it's done here (not sure if 
it's possible with Arquillian+Shrinkwrap+Wildfly, but I assume that 
yes). If you still don't have access to Keycloak model API, you can 
maybe write some selenium utils, which will do needed setup in KC admin 
console UI...

Another alternative might be that you will use 2 servers in your 
testsuite. Your wildfly server with adapter installed will be on 
localhost:8080 (you have it already running) and KC server will be on 
localhost:8081 (You can directly reuse our testsuite for setup this).

Good luck and let me know if still having issues. Btw. we don't have any 
integration tests for admin console and real AS7 and Wildfly adapters 
AFAIK. So it would be nice if you can share your work once you have your 
testsuite up and running:-)
