   @joewitt, @MikeThomsen I am wondering if it would be possible to make some progress with this PR? (I understand you might be very busy)
   
   Based on best of my knowledge, this feature (and code base) works properly:
   I had successfully executed tests both in my IDE, via a local Maven command line build and in a Travis CI build.
   
   I absolutely appreciate the dedication of ensuring that only quality code should become part of NiFi, but at the same time I think releasing something that might later be improved is part of the natural evolution:
      * This feature is a new testing utility, which cannot possibly break any existing (production) feature
      * All APIs introduced clearly state this might be evolving in the future (_*CAUTION: THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL API: EXPECT CHANGES!* Efforts will be made to retain backwards API compatibility, but no guarantee is given._), so users can take that into consideration.
   
   I had some previous projects where having a (even a primitive) NiFi test harness would have been of a huge relief. 
   
   Please let me know if I can help you in any way here.
