Yes, my terminology might have been confusing.

My approach is usually to test using JUnit
-smaller units (class/method combinations) separate from any bundles,
-several of my bundles together using a simple mock BundleContext,
-integration with the environment (Felix, external bundles) using a
programmatic setup of Felix and programmatic control of Felix/access to
bundlecontext, etc.

I never could figure out why I would want to use Pax, it just always seemed
complex and I could not figure why I would need it. But I think that is up
to preferences. I understand I am also "stuck in the past" in the sense that
I strongly prefer Ant over Maven :). I just prefer to understand what is
going on in my runtime system and build environment and have the tool adapt
to me rather than the other way around. But enough about that. I guess this
is to say that different options are available but the choice depends..
