EJB @Resource SessionContext not injected when running SeamTests

[jeanluc]

I've just found that an injected EJB resource (specifically, @Resource SessionContext context) is left null when running SeamTests.

I have an SLSB which uses the context. If I call its methods from a new ComponentTest() { @Override protected void testComponents() {...}}.run(); the session context is still null.

Has anyone have a solution for this?

Thanks.

So are you saying that the injection is null while testing but not during runtime (non-test classes)?

Exactly.

And there's no stack trace in server.log?

Perhaps this is a bug/problem with JBoss Embedded and/or SeamTest, I assume you're using JBoss embedded as your container for testNG testing, etc.

no stack trace indeed. I get an NPE when I try to use the injected context, but that stack trace only shows my code's flow, not why the embedded JBoss (which is used for testing, indeed) doesn't inject it.
