Start Tomcat 8 with Arquillian in JUnit

Start Tomcat 8 with Arquillian in JUnit

I am trying to run integration tests for my web application. So I want to start Tomcat 8 from JUnit Test.

@RunWith(Arquillian.class)
public class ServiceTest {

    @ArquillianResource
    private URL baseURL;


    /**
     * Define the deployment
     */
    @Deployment(testable=false)
    public static WebArchive createTestArchive() {

        File[] files = Maven.configureResolver().workOffline()
                .loadPomFromFile("pom.xml")
                .resolve("org.glassfish.jersey.containers:jersey-container-servlet-core",
                        "org.jboss.weld.servlet:weld-servlet",
                        "org.glassfish.jersey.containers.glassfish:jersey-gf-cdi")
                .withTransitivity()
                .asFile();

        WebArchive webArchive = ShrinkWrap
                .create(WebArchive.class, "api.war")
                .addClass(de.example.service.servlet.ServletContextInitalizer.class)
                .addClass(de.example.service.rest.PolygonService.class)
                ...
                .addAsLibraries(files);

        return webArchive;
    }

My pom.xml file can be found here . I see that my ServletContextListener implementation is being called correctly, but after loading the Listener, I get a ClassCastException:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.glassfish.jersey.server.filter.internal.    ServerFiltersAutoDiscoverable cannot be cast to org.glassfish.jersey.internal.spi.AutoDiscoverable
