I want to ask for your prefered way to test JEE code?

I found only three project, that are trying to help to code unit tests in JEE environment:

http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/ : Last Published: 2009-01-18
http://www.junitee.org/ : Last Release: 2004-12-11
http://ejb3unit.sourceforge.net/ : Last Release: 2008-05-17

So I wonder,

is there any framework helping to write (j) unit test for JEE code?
do you use embedded JEE servers like jboss or glassfish v3?
do you mockup and inject by yourself?

Thanks a lot...
