Testing Security with Maven

JUnit components may be configured with a context for invocations. For example, possible to configure authentication information, which will allow a subject for each test invocation to be set automatically based on that information:
<component name="SecureServiceTest">
<f3:junit class="org.fabric3.policy.security.SecureServiceTest">
<configuration>
<username>foo</username>
<password>bar</password>
</configuration>
</f3:junit>
<reference name="secureRoleService" target="SecureRolesService"/>
</component>
<component name="SecureRolesService">
<implementation.java class="org.fabric3.policy.security.SecureRolesServiceImpl"/>
</component>
The Maven POM is configured with the following:
<systemConfig>
<![CDATA[
<config>
<users>
<user>
<username>foo</username>
<password>bar</password>
<roles>
<role>role1</role>
<role>role2</role>
</roles>
</user>
</users>
</config>
]]>
</systemConfig>

This provides an easy way to test components that require authentication and/or authorization.
