As you may have seen, I use Easymock at the Cocoon Block Deployer for my tests. IIUC, having a framework like this, also makes it very easy to test frameworks like Avalon because you can mock the service manager with a few lines of code. What I want to say, testability isn't a real difference but I agree with the other mentioned advantages containers providing dependency injection.
Er ... no, I haven't had much time to look at it deeply, yet. In any case, could you please provide something like an "executive summary" of what the BD is, particularly whether it is supposed to work with the current blocks system or with something new, and such.
Re testability, I agree that mock objects can help a lot, but sometimes it can even be easier to be able to do without.
