For serializers it's actually pretty easy:
    
    SerializationContext context = new SerializationContext(
        new OutputStreamWriter(System.out));
    Serializer ser = new MySerializer();
    ser.serialize(new QName("name", new AttributesImpl(),
        myObj, context);

I don't see how it can be done for deserializers -- in particular, 
without dragging in most of Axis. This is actually pretty bad for 
writing unit tests.
