Similar to what we have for OSGi annotations, PDE should have OSGi Testing Support as it is a great library for testing OSGi applications. The most hindering thing in this regard is that it is rater complex to setup until one can make the first steps. This now adds a new classpath contributor that detects if a PDE project is already using JUNIT classpath container and then adds OSGi test dependencies automatically as test dependencies if they are part of the target platform or alternatively from the running platform. See eclipse-pde#877

Currently PDE supports running a JUnit Plug-in Test, but this is tightly coupled to PDE and Eclipse Applications. On the other hand PDE offers to launch plain OSGi Frameworks but something similar for tests is missing. This adds a new launch type "OSGi Test" that offers such type of tests that are not tied to PDE/Eclipse but targeting generic OSGi applications, this is very similar to what Tycho offers as 'tycho-surefire-plugin:bnd-test' and will also allow better interfacing with the OSGi Test framework.
