building embedded by default is the right thing to do.

is javatest glassfish specific? Would it make sense to move it to its
own repo or at least let it have separate lifecycle instead?
Javatest is not glassfish specific, but some of the tests use it. Unfortunately it's not available in Maven Central, so GlassFish downloads an archive that contains it from Eclipse (the authorization TCK archive) and then grabs that zip file from it.
I've asked Scott (cc'ed) before for this to be moved to Maven Central. Since the original code is Oracle and used by the JDK, I figure this will not be solved within a short timeframe. So in the meantime we have to do alternative solutions.
What about having extra profiles the other way around - be fast (=dev
friendly) by default and have profiles for extra tests/checks instead?
Yes, this could be considered for sure, if the other GlassFish committers agree with that.
Kind regards,
Arjan
