Arquillian - Wildfly cannot deploy test.war (Could not connect to http-remoting://127.0.0.1:9990. The connection failed)

Question

I am trying to run a simple JPA test (persist, read, JSON serialize) with Arquillian and Wildfly (8.1.0.Final and 8.2.0.Final tested) container, but until now I was not able to deploy test.war to the embedded server. The test runs with Jboss 7.1.1.Final container.

• I have used arquillian-tutorial package given on Arquillian Getting Started Guide and Arquillian Example Project (google: github arquillian tutorial)
• I have used Arquillian - Wildfly configuration given here

You can find a downloadable project package on google drive. You can see Maven and Arquillian configurations in that package. I have tried with or without Management realm credentials. On profile wildfy81-embedded-credentials (which is the default in the package), the build first unpacks wildfly package and then overwrites mgmt-users.properties and mgmt-groups.properties where admin user credentials and role is defined.

The exception is

Could you please help me to find the issue here?

Thanks in advance.

From arquillian.xml

<container qualifier="wildfly-embedded-credentials">
        <configuration>
            <property name="jbossHome">target/wildfly-8.1.0.Final</property>
            <property name="modulePath">target/wildfly-8.1.0.Final/modules</property>
            <property name="managementAddress">127.0.0.1</property>
            <property name="managementPort">9990</property>
            <property name="username">admin</property>
            <property name="password">admin</property>
            <property name="outputToConsole">true</property>
        </configuration>
    </container>

Deployment code:

@Deployment
public static WebArchive createDeployment() {
    return ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "test.war")
        .addPackage(MyBean.class.getPackage())
        .addAsLibraries(new File("target/test-libs/commons-collections.jar"), 
                        new File("target/test-libs/flexjson.jar"))
        .addAsResource("test-persistence.xml", "META-INF/persistence.xml")
        .addAsWebInfResource("jboss-ds.xml")
        .addAsWebInfResource(EmptyAsset.INSTANCE, "beans.xml");
}

I wonder if this is because of URL

INFO Http management interface listening on http://127.0.0.1:9990/management

Edit 2

In the attached project (google drive link above), you will see there is another profile wildfy81-embedded in pom.xml with different arquillian configuration where I do not supply management address or username and password, only jbossHome and modulePath folders are defined. I get same exception (same port as well, 9990).

<container qualifier="wildfly-embedded">
    <configuration>
        <property name="jbossHome">target/wildfly-8.1.0.Final</property>
        <property name="modulePath">target/wildfly-8.1.0.Final/modules</property>
        <property name="outputToConsole">true</property>
    </configuration>
</container>

On my last test, I have noticed one more exception cause (maybe because of java version or eclipse version that I am using at home). This was the exception at the bottom of other exception lines Could not connect to http-remoting://127.0.0.1:9990. The connection failed

I have encountered this exception (invalid response part) a few times because of Nvidia drivers on windows platform. NVIDIA Network Service is using the same port WildFly/JBoss AS is using. If you are using windows with nvidia, then please go to local services and stop this service, then check if the tests work :).
