Have a query regarding unit testing within plexus.

I'm wanting to test all my components using a real deployment 
scenario, so I can test whether all my configurations  are 
correct and all pigs are flying. To achieve this I'm looking 
at running plexus through jetty (using summit) and using an 
xml-rpc component communicating with my unit tests to provide 
the ServiceManager from within plexus. This would allow me to 
test all my components both in a development deployment, and 
also in live deployment.

What I'm interested in knowing is if anybody else has done 
this? or is there a better way? I know I can extend 
PlexusTestCase but this still doesn't test the whole war 
bundle and doesn't mimic a real deployment situation.
