com.sun.jersey.api.client.ClientHandlerException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect - rest

Question

I've been trying to start and stop Jetty automatically in mvn clean install phase for my unit tests. The annoying thing is when I deploy my war file in JBoss all the tests are working fine, however, when I try to use maven-jetty-plugin I have a Connection refuse: connect error. I'm sure about that Jetty starts but doesnt recognize the URLs so that it can't establish the connection.

and the implementation of it

#Override
public BookEntity createBook(BookEntity bookEntity) {
bookEntity.setId(idCounter.getAndIncrement());
list.put(bookEntity.getId(), bookEntity);
return bookEntity;
}
}
finally test class
public class TestClass {
private static final String POST_INPUT = "{\"title\" : \"LOTR\",\"author\" : \"J.K.Rowling\",\"price\" : 12.99}";
private static Client client;
#Before
public void setUp() {
ClientConfig clientConfig = new DefaultClientConfig();
clientConfig.getFeatures().put(JSONConfiguration.FEATURE_POJO_MAPPING, Boolean.TRUE);
client = Client.create(clientConfig);
}
#After
public void close() {
client.destroy();
}
#Test
public void testCreateSuccess() throws Exception {
WebResource webResourcePost = client.resource("http://localhost:8080/jersey-rest-client/services/book-service/create");
ClientResponse response = webResourcePost.accept("application/json").type("application/json").post(ClientResponse.class, POST_INPUT);
BookEntity responseEntity = response.getEntity(BookEntity.class);
assertEquals(200, response.getStatus());
assertEquals("LOTR", responseEntity.getTitle());
assertEquals("J.K.Rowling", responseEntity.getAuthor());
assertEquals(12.99, responseEntity.getPrice(), 0.0001);
}
}
Also you can find the whole implementation from here

I will appreciate for every response. Thanks anyway
