So while Arquillian allows us to abstract the container from the test, I think we still need to provide a way for users to configure the target container.

For instance:

public class GlassFishEmbeddedContainer implements DeployableContainer
{
   // Hardcoded bind port
   private int port = 8080;
}

EJB3 MDBs, for instance, are generic listeners which rely upon the JCA abstraction.  And they need to be configured too; so they configure the adaptor via a generic map of properties:

@MessageDriven(activationConfig =
{
      @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "destinationType", propertyValue = "javax.jms.Queue"),
      @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "destination", propertyValue = "queue/MyQueue")})
public class MyMdb implements javax.jms.MessageListener {}

So for us, alongside specifying a target container explicitly, we can do something similar.  Thoughts?
