Interestingly, this is something I've done even on pure Java projects, so
that I can use the REPL for exploratory coding.  I also much prefer the
BDD-oriented DSLs available in ScalaTest and Specs over JUnit or TestNG
(again, even when the non-test code is all pure Java).  Both frameworks can
also expose their tests via JUnit interfaces, to surefire integration isn't
a problem here.

It's also possible to manage a Java project with SBT, which still gives you
some of the nice continuous compilation/testing/deployment behaviour, as
well as the REPL.

conventional wisdom is so foolish as to book that count on the wrong side of
the ledger" ~ Dijkstra
