I think an user guide for using Px Exam with Eclipse will be very useful. If
Toni does not do it before me, I will during this weekend.Till then the what
you can do is to:
1. Add this jars to your classpath (take latest)

   - pax-exam<http://repository.ops4j.org/maven2/org/ops4j/pax/exam/pax-exam>
   - 
pax-exam-junit<http://repository.ops4j.org/maven2/org/ops4j/pax/exam/pax-exam-junit>
   - 
pax-exam-container-default<http://repository.ops4j.org/maven2/org/ops4j/pax/exam/pax-exam-container-default>

2. Follow http://wiki.ops4j.org//x/f4Cr.
