Thanks for that Guillaume.
We start with this and extend it.

I've just committed a first test to see what's possible.
It's really easy and only unzip the distribution, start karaf, wait
for it to be started, run the stop script, and wait for evrything to
shutdown.
We can build on that and add more tests for various scripts and
expected behavior.
We could even add some for demos if that makes sense ...
Feel free to hack on that ....
See http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1039339
The actual test is available at

Hi All,
After encountering some release issues with the Apache Karaf 2.1.x
branch it has come to the forefront that we need to improve our
distribution testing. The main target of distribution testing we need
is to try out the various scripts we include in each distribution kit.
These tests would ideally cover un-archiving the kit, launch
bin/karaf, bin/start, bin/stop, bin/client, and bin/admin.
To help build these tests we can make use of bin/client to help make
ssh connections (send commands), and admin/core process library to
control the various processed involved in each test. To uncompress the
different distributions we could use commons-compress or just ask
maven to do the work for us (this is done in the Servicemix NMR&
Features projects).
Regardless of which tools we use to build these tests a certain amount
of CI will be required. Most of us currently use unix based systems,
so Windows based issues for example tend to sneak by. Hopefully by
having such tests automated we'll be able to catch distribution issues
earlier.
Cheers,
Jamie
