I've removed these kind of sleeps | // wiat a little bit to give time for the message to be handled by the server | Thread.sleep(timeToSleep); | Since it's non deterministic and sometimes the tests would fail. A much simpler way to ensure the message gets to the server is just to set blocking sends to true on the connection factory.
