             Summary: Create testing utilities for email-enabled applications
                 Key: SLING-6949
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6949
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Testing
            Reporter: Robert Munteanu
            Assignee: Robert Munteanu


When working with email-enabled applications it is sometimes desirable to interact with the emails send by the applications, either by verifying the contents of the emails or just validating that a certain email is sent.

A good solution for this is [Wiser|https://github.com/voodoodyne/subethasmtp/blob/master/Wiser.md], which works quite well.

One scenario where this does not apply is when the application under test is running as a container, and it cannot access the host application to deliver emails to the Wiser instance.

To have an unitary approach I propose that we create an OSGi bundle which wraps Wiser and starts in the Sling application. The messages received by Wiser can then be read using an HTTP API.
