I don’t think that would work for me.

I have a set of IT that will test services running in a Sling Start Maven 
Plugin instance. In order to make sure that my tests can succeed and do not 
fail because of unsatisfied references I want to check the references before 
starting the tests (I had multiple occasions where I was debugging my code just 
to figure out that my bundles were active but some services were not accessible 
because of these unsatisfied references).
