The pom.xml of the project has some of the profiles like arquillian-weld-ee-embedded, arquillian-glassfish-embedded, and arquillian-jbossas-managed.and none of them is active by default,so to make the Arquillian container workable,you need to make any of these profile default. check the following pom.xml

I finished following the JPA tutorial at http://arquillian.org/guides/testing_java_persistence/ , but when I try to run the test ("Run the Test on GlassFish" section of the guide) as JUnit I obtain the following messages in Eclipse's console:

ìf you are not using jboss ,then you can mark any other profile default,and that should work
