    Should I use Arquillian instead of the Spring TestContext Framework?

      Hi All,

       

      I'm new to Arquillian. Currently we are doing the integration tests of our application using what Spring offers, namely Spring TestContext Framework. I try to figure out what would be the benefits of switching to Arquillian. Could someone explain?

       

      Our integration tests are nothing special. We extend AbstractJUnit4SpringContextTests, use transactions, inject stuff. How could Arquillian help here?

       

      From this thread on stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4922554/difference-between-spring-testcontext-framework-and-jboss-arquillian I understand that there is not much gain, but I would be happy to learn the opinions of Arquillian experts.
