When you try to access a basic auth protected maven repository you might actually already run into all sorts of weird errors, but now trying a basic auth protected maven repository during a Arquillian build when it is creating the deployment.
You migh have figured out the first part of accessing the maven repositoryis setting a Authorization header and your configuration looks something like this (the encoded username is test and the password is s3cur3) :
<servers>
<server>
<!-- Link this id here to the repo ID in the mirror section -->
<id>repo</id>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Authorization</name>
<value>Basic dGVzdDpzM2N1cjM=</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>
What you now just need to do on top of that is add the username and password to your settings.xml configuration file like so.
<servers>
<server>
<!-- Link this id here to the repo ID in the mirror section -->
<id>repo</id>
<username>test</username>
<password>s3cur3</password>
<configuration>
<httpHeaders>
<property>
<name>Authorization</name>
<value>Basic dGVzdDpzM2N1cjM=</value>
</property>
</httpHeaders>
</configuration>
</server>
</servers>

You especially need add values for these two if you run into the following exception.
