Solution:
<managed-property>
<property-name>testType</property-name>
<property-class>com.company$EnumType</property-class>
<value>SomeValue</value>
</managed-property>
Then I had to create a EnumTypeEditor and place it in the same package
implementing PropertyEditor.
I'd really like to see any other ideas that work.

Subject: Java 5 enum with
property-class
Has anyone found a solution to using enums with the managed bean's
property-class yet? The implementation doesn't seem to like the fully
qualified name.
<managed-property>
<property-name>testType</property-name>
<property-class>com.company.EnumType</property-class>
<value>com.company.EnumType.SomeValue</value>
</managed-property>
