Unit testing EJB and remote interface with EjbEmbedded Conatiner

Question

I have this EJB

@Stateless
public class HelloBean{


    public String sayHello(){
        return "hello";
    } 

}

When I test with this unit test:

    @Test
    public void testEmbeddedPersistence() throws NamingException {
        assertTrue(true);



        Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<String, Object>();

        props.put(EJBContainer.MODULES,  new File("target/classes"));
        props.put("org.glassfish.ejb.embedded.glassfish.instance.root",    "./src/test/resources/glassfish-testing-domain");

    ec = EJBContainer.createEJBContainer(props);
    ctx = ec.getContext();


    String s = "java:global/classes/HelloBean";
    HelloBean helloBean = (HelloBean) ctx.lookup(s);
    assertNotNull(helloBean);

    assertABunchOfStuff();        

    ec.close();
}

everything works fine.

But when I change it to

@Stateless
public class HelloBean implements RemoteHello{


    public String sayHello(){
            return "hello";
    }
}

@Remote
public interface RemoteHello{
    public String sayHello();
}





@Test
    public void testEmbeddedPersistence() throws NamingException {
        assertTrue(true);



        Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<String, Object>();

        props.put(EJBContainer.MODULES,  new File("target/classes"));
        props.put("org.glassfish.ejb.embedded.glassfish.instance.root", "./src/test/resources/glassfish-testing-domain");

        ec = EJBContainer.createEJBContainer(props);
        ctx = ec.getContext();


        String s = "java:global/classes/HelloBean!com.mycompany.remoteInterface.RemoteHello";
        RemoteHello remoteHello = (RemoteHello) ctx.lookup(s);
        assertNotNull(remoteHello);

        assertABunchOfStuff();        

        ec.close();
    }

I get a javax.naming.NamingException

the weirdest thing is, When the EJBContainer is intializing it says:

INFO: EJB5181:Portable JNDI names for EJB HelloBean: [java:global/classes/HelloBean!com.mycompany.remoteInterface.RemoteHello, java:global/classes/HelloBean] Feb 10, 2012 3:55:22 PM com.sun.ejb.containers.BaseContainer initializeHome

followed shortly after:

Tests in error: testEmbeddedPersistence(com.mycompaony.HelloBean): Lookup failed for 'java:global/classes/HelloBean!com.mycompany.remoteInterface.RemoteHello' in SerialContext[myEnv={java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.enterprise.naming.impl.SerialInitContextFactory, java.naming.factory.state=com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl, java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=com.sun.enterprise.naming}

How can I get a successful jndi lookup with a remote interface.

Thanks

Remote interfaces are not part of EJB lite (EJB 3.1 specification, table 27), and embeddable containers are only required to provide EJB lite (EJB 3.1 specification, section 22.3.1).
