Writing integration tests

We recommend using PAX Exam to write integration tests when developing
applications using Karaf.

Karaf provides an helper library to help writing such integration tests.

 @Configuration
 public static Option[] configuration() throws Exception{
 return combine(
 // Default karaf environment
 Helper.getDefaultOptions(),
 // Test on both equinox and felix
 equinox(), felix()
 );
 }

If you need to provision a few features in addition to the default Karaf environment, you can do so by adding the following code:

 scanFeatures(
 maven().groupId("org.apache.felix.karaf")
 .artifactId("apache-felix-karaf")
 .type("xml").classifier("features")
 .versionAsInProject(),
 "obr", "wrapper"
 ),
