Hi,

while I worked on adding jakarta servlet support to our codebase I had to update to Java 17 (as mentioned in those threads). Our released version of Sling Testing PaxExam 4.x does not support Java 17 so I had to switch to the unreleased 5.0.0 version - so far so good.

However, that version has removed all sling options as part of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-12577 - which makes it a very complicated and time consuming process if you just want to update your pax exam tests to Java 17 (without any further changes). I ended up copying those options from the 4.x release into each and every module (and stripped it down a little bit).

While I understand the reasoning behind this change, how about making a 5.0.0 release with them back in - with that release we make it pretty easy to update our code base to Java 17. And then a 6.0.0 release where these options are dropped.

WDYT?

Regards
Carsten
