Maven2

In maven2 you can enable the javaagent for your tests by adding this to your pom.xml file:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <!-- this configures the surefire plugin to run your tests with the javaagent enabled -->
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
      <configuration>
        <forkMode>pertest</forkMode>
        <argLine>-javaagent:${project.basedir}/target/openejb-javaagent-4.6.0.jar</argLine>
        <workingDirectory>${project.basedir}/target</workingDirectory>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>

    <!-- this tells maven to copy the openejb-javaagent jar into your target/ directory -->
    <!-- where surefire can see it -->
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
