does it have to be Arquillian? In Search and Validator we are using Pax Exam[1]<br>
for Karaf integration tests. See for example OsgiIntegrationTest [2] in Validator.<br>
<br>
It works quite well, but no matter whether Pax Exam or Arquillian it gets painful<br>
once you need to debug the tests. There it is often the best approach to have a local<br>
Karaf instance into which you deploy your features to verify that it actually deploys.<br>

Pax Exam, but I don't have actual experience with Arquillian + Karaf.<br>
