Bnd/Bndtools is its own ecosystem. Everything not Bnd is foreign.
For example, it needs custom code to consume bndrun definitions (the
bnd way of defining a target environment) to Pax Exams Configuration DSL.
There is also the problem that there is no good way of integrating Pax Url
with Bndtools workspace.
Those were two blockers I saw keeping me from instantly dropping Bndtools
Integrationtests.

Making the two of them love each other might be simpler than expected, but
that would be okay. Just saying it's currently two worlds. Also the way Pax
Exam adds features (by adding entries to classpath) is foreign to Bndtools
users.
