NullpointerException for @BeforeMethod in TestNG

[suikast42]

I migrated my tests from JUnit to TestNG. In JUnit I have no problem when I use injected field with @Before. But when I use @BeforeMethod in TestNG I get a Nullpointerexception.

It seems so that the method called on wrong time. If I catch the NullpointerException then it works fine. Example shown below:

....

@Inject

UserTransaction utx

...

@BeforeMethod

public void startUTX(){

if(utx!=null){

utx.begin();

}

}

So at test initialisation the NullPointer occurs. Afterwards the testcase works fine.

My env:

Jboss 7.1.1

Arquillian 1.0.2.Final

TestNG 6.5

I found a similar problem here.

I see a thread in StackOverflow which is realted to ARQ-351. So I think this is a bug in ARQ 1.0.x and will be fixed in 1.1.0.CR1 right ?
