Hi, Rafal --

what do you think of implementing a command line tool bpelrun, which
could compile and run a process by sending a request from stdin and
displaying response to stdout.
This would speed up testing of various bpel constructs. It would be
helpful in developing larger processes by copy-pasting from small
examples.
It could be also useful to do bpel unit testing.

Great idea. I'd thought about doing something similar once upon a time, making a kind of "busy box" for a process instance where you could drop messages onto ports and see them show up where they come out.

The one slightly complex thing would be to mark which ports are expected to be synthetic (i.e., drop data in, get data out) and which are expected to be live, i.e., bound to actual services.
