Hello,

I really like embedded stuff. I got very excited when I heard OpenEJB 3 was
released!

But, the thing is that I cannot get my unit tests with OpenEJB3 to follow
Maven2 best practices.

The OpenEJB3 requires a ejb-jar.xml to exist in src/main/resources to locate my EJB's and if I'm using entity beans a persistence.xml must exist in the
same directory.

What about the src/test/resources directory which is supposed to be used by
testing?

And what about package and deplotyment for production. If my test
ejb-jar.xml and persistence.xml must be in src/main/resources then how
should I manage the "real" configuration files (those that should reside in
src/main/resources).
When I package my ejb-jar it will contain configuration files used for
testing... bad...

Any thoughts on how to handle this issue?

Hi Andreas,

The intention was that the ejb-jar.xml and persistence.xml we test would be the one you use in production. Obviously then it's perfectly in line with Maven2 best practices.

I had never thought of having a seperate ejb-jar.xml just for testing purposes, but it's certainly an interesting idea. Can you elaborate on what you would do differently in the "test" ejb-jar.xml versus the "production" ejb-jar.xml? Some sort of example would be good too.
