Github user jbertram commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/activemq-artemis/pull/1982 @mohamnag, by "normal API" I mean "a client API which is normally used by remote clients (e.g. 'core' API or JMS API)." As I see it, most of the power in the Artemis JUnit resources comes from being able to easily inject, configure, and run an embedded broker. If you aren't leveraging that capability it seems just as easy to use something like core or JMS 2 to connect to the external broker.
