Quick prototyping and testing support

In any integration project, it's typical that we have some part of the integration logic not yet available. For instance:

As a complete integration framework, Camel provides a very easy way to prototype part of the integration logic. Even if you don't have the actual system to integrate, you can simulate this system (mock), as it allows you to implement your integration logic without waiting for dependencies. The mocking support is directly part of the Camel core and doesn't require any additional dependency.

Along the same lines, testing is also crucial in an integration project. In such a kind of project, a lot of errors can happen and most are unforeseen. Moreover, a small change in an integration process might impact a lot of other processes. Camel provides the tools to easily test your design and integration logic, allowing you to integrate this in a continuous integration platform.
