Hello, I'm trying to use Pax Exam Karaf (in Karaf 2.3.0). In my setup I use .xml file in the Karaf deploy folder to instantiate beans and services; I also use xbean-blueprint to make use of a custom xml namespace.
Now I want to make testing easier with Pax Exam (it's my first experience with Pax Exam). I'm trying to achieve this by setting up the test environment like this: @RunWith(JUnit4TestRunner.class) @ExamReactorStrategy(AllConfinedStagedReactorFactory.class) public class TestMonitor { @Configuration public static Option[] configuration() throws Exception { System.out.print("Before configuration of karaf"); return new Option[] { karafDistributionConfiguration() .frameworkUrl( "mvn:org.apache.karaf/apache-karaf/2.3.0/zip") .karafVersion("2.3.0").name("TestKaraf") .unpackDirectory(new File("target/paxexam/unpack")), junitBundles(), mavenBundle("org.apache.geronimo.specs", "geronimo-jta_1.1_spec", "1.1.1"), mavenBundle("org.apache.geronimo.specs", "geronimo-jms_1.1_spec", "1.1.1"), mavenBundle("org.apache.xbean", "xbean-blueprint", "3.12"), mavenBundle("mypackage", "status-tables","0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"), provision("file:C:\\Documents and Settings\\Neduz\\workspace\\StatusTables.xml") }; } Instead of "provision" I also tried "org.ops4j.pax.exam.CoreOptions.bundle", but this doesn't seem to instantiate the beans & services defined in the XML I use this to get a reference to the "StatusTable" created in the XML file: @Inject private StatusTable statusTable; But this always results in: test:TestMonitor.test:KarafTestContainer{mvn:org.apache.karaf/apache-karaf/2.3.0/zip}(mypackage.tests.TestMonitor) Time elapsed: 28.11 sec <<< ERROR! org.ops4j.pax.swissbox.framework.ServiceLookupException: gave up waiting for service mypackage.StatusTable How can I properly get an blueprint xml "interpreted" in a pax-exam-karaf environment?
