Example setup for using arquillian with Websphere Liberty Profile 8.5.5.4 - jboss-arquillian

Question

I was not able to get an Arquillian testcase running together with WLP 8.5.5.4. Is there any simple example project in place which demonstrates this to me? I did not find one.

You can find complex setup with creation of testing server in this redbook Configuring and Deploying Open Source with WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile.
Here you have very basic setup:
Configure arquillian.xml file for WebSphere Liberty:
<arquillian xmlns="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian/arquillian_1_0.xsd">
<engine>
<property name="deploymentExportPath">target/</property>
</engine>
<container qualifier="wlp-managed-85" default="true">
<configuration>
<property name="wlpHome">C:/IBM/WebSphere/wlp</property>
<property name="serverName">defaultServer</property>
<property name="httpPort">9080</property>
<property name="appDeployTimeout">20</property>
<property name="appUndeployTimeout">20</property>
</configuration>
</container>
Configure required dependencies in the pom.xml:
