Hi Mark, The cactus plugin for Maven is actually hosted by the Cactus project. Thus all discussions happen there. See below.

However the current version of the Cactus plugin for Maven does not support running the Cactus plugin at the level of the EAR project (we need to add support for this). Thus ATM, you need to run the cactus:test-ear goal at the level of the EJB project. > > I may be misunderstanding how/where to put and run the cactus tests... my > first inclination was to put it in the EJB folder next to the Bean > implementation.

Just make sure you have a src/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml file in your EJB project tree (the Cactus requires a war file and at this current it is not yet able to create a default one all by itself). When you call cactus:test-ear, the Cactus plugin will then create a WAR containing your Cactus tests (the creation of the WAR currently requires a web.xml file - we should actually create one if none exists). Then it will compile your EJB and package the whole thing in an EAR. > > I've got a preGoal on cactus:compile that echos a bunch of classpaths, > which > are all empty: ${cactus.classpath}, ${maven.classpath}, > ${maven.ear.classpath}, ${maven.war.classpath}, ${classpath}, > ${maven.dependency.classpath} > > Is there a way I can explicitly add the EJB's jar file (which is in the > local > repository), or is there a way to get cactus to create a correct EAR file > for > testing as a goal of the EJB project and still have the "normal" goal > create > the standard EJB jar file? > > Thanks! Feel free to send some patch if you want it to work the way you described (and/or open some JIRA issues).
