                 Key: KARAF-532
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-532
             Project: Karaf
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Charles Moulliard


Some OSGI projects requires that we have OSGI platform running to test them (ex 
: Aries Blueprint). Karaf project does not provide any Mock component for doing 
that and so it is not possible to make tests about Blueprint using a java Unit 
test + spring.

We could create a mock component to allow that. Spring DM project has created a 
Mock class 
(http://static.springsource.org/osgi/docs/1.2.1/reference/html-single/#testing:mocks)
 that we could reuse but the approach followed by Eclipse Virgo could be more 
clever. They have created Stubs classes (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Virgo/Test) 
registering through interfaces the OSGI classes of the frameworks who can be 
used in unit test. 

Question : Who should be the owner of that (karaf or aries) ?
