I see that TestActorRef is not an option with PersistentActor http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4.1/scala/testing.html#Synchronous_Unit_Testing_with_TestActorRef
This is not the clearest paragraph, but perhaps provides an option: "It may also be required during testing, when the test subject depends on being instantiated at a specific path. In that case it is best to mock its supervisor so that it will forward the Terminated message to the appropriate point in the test procedure, enabling the latter to await proper deregistration of the name." http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/general/addressing.html#Reusing_Actor_Paths Only other thing I can think of is to use akka-persistence-query APIs to check the event store, but that's not exactly testing recover. Thanks for any other ideas.
