Migrating spring camel to blueprint?

[jamie3_james.archibald]

This might not be the best place to ask but I figured you guys might have run into the same problems. I've googled but haven't had much success in finding any answers. So here is my problem:

I am migrating my spring xml files into blueprint for deploying on FuseESB. Everything is working out great. The problem is I previously used the maven camel:run plugin to deploy my spring xml files for debugging/development. I also have some junit tests which use the Spring Camel Test Support class for creating my camel routes from the spring application context.

Now that I am in blueprint world, do you know of any similar tools for developing and also running unit tests with my blueprint xml files?

pax-exam can be used for unit testing with osgi.

As the Blueprint is provided as OSGi service, we can't use the more test support that we have in the camel-test module.

You can take a look at the camel-osgi-integration test in the tests directory , there are lots test support classes can help you by leveraging the PAX-EXAM that Claus had told you.

In a future Camel release there will be a camel-osgi-test as a test kit, that helps people to unit test Camel applications with osgi.

But as Willem pointed out, you can take a look in that tests/camel-itest-osgi in the Camel source for examples how to.

Fuse IDE allows you to deploy a Camel application you develop to Fuse ESB / Apache Karaf. This is a new feature in the latest release, which we continue to improve.
