Hi Toni,

thanks for the information. We will drive this effort further and then decide 
whether we go for this approach.
Depending on the outcome we might donate the code.

Could you give us an idea of why the introduction of the TestAddress was a 
major impediment for the Remote Container feature? 

In my understanding the TestAddress is basically a key that allows to address a 
test method declared in a particular test class 
inside a probe bundle, running in a particular OSGi instance. TestAddress can 
spawn multiple child TestAddresses if the same test is to be run on multiple 
instances. The TestAddress is also crafted into the Probe manifest so that it 
can be resolved in the remote instance. Conceptually TestAddress should be a 
combination of container/test class/test method?

Did you consider using OSGi remote services for communication with the remote 
instance? I would give that a try to see how it feels compared to directly
operating RMI.

Thanks and regards,
Markus
