}Simple Stateless
``Stateless session beans are session beans whose instances have no conversational state. This means that all bean instances are equivalent when they are not involved in servicing a client-invoked method. The term `stateless' signifies that an instance has no state for a specific client.''
What this means is quite simply that stateless beans are shared. They do in fact have state as you can assign values to the variables, etc. in the bean instance. The only catch is there are a pool of identical instances and you are not guaranteed to get the exact same instance on every call. For each call, you get whatever instance happens to be available. This is identical to checking out a book from the library or renting a movie from the video store. You are essentially checking out or renting a new bean instance on each method call.
CalculatorBean
CalculatorTest
Our CalculatorBean can be easily tested using the EJBContainer API
in EJB 3.1

import org.junit.AfterClass;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.BeforeClass;
import org.junit.Test;
import javax.ejb.embeddable.EJBContainer;
import javax.naming.NamingException;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertTrue;
public class CalculatorTest {
private static EJBContainer ejbContainer;
private CalculatorBean calculator;
@BeforeClass
public static void startTheContainer() {

}
@Before
public void lookupABean() throws NamingException {
Object object = ejbContainer.getContext().lookup("java:global/simple-stateless/CalculatorBean");
assertTrue(object instanceof CalculatorBean);
calculator = (CalculatorBean) object;
}
@AfterClass
public static void stopTheContainer() {
if (ejbContainer != null) {
ejbContainer.close();
}
}
/**

*/
@Test
public void testAdd() {
assertEquals(10, calculator.add(4, 6));
}
/**

}
/**

@Test
public void testMultiply() {
assertEquals(24, calculator.multiply(4, 6));
}
/**

@Test
public void testDivide() {
assertEquals(2, calculator.divide(12, 6));
}
/**

*/
@Test
public void testRemainder() {

}
