Description

I am attempting to run a junit test against a JAX-WS service method
using a simple client class and compiled generated sources from
ws-import.

When the test is run through surefire while doing either test or install
I get the error

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
com.sun.xml.ws.api.model.SEIModel.getJAXBContext()Lcom/sun/xml/bind/api/JAXBRIContext;

but when I inspect the xml in the surefire reports directory and use
java and junit directly on the command line using the classpath and
bootclasspath outlined in the xml file (and, of course, the same version
of junit and the same version of java) the test is successful.

What is (or could be) the problem?
