Major Description
The current AMQP implementation depends on testing using the prototype JMS 1.0 client from QPid. This present a few difficulties when it comes to unit testing the AMQP bits in that it is quite difficult to test the AMQP functionality directly as the client attempts to map AMQP to JMS but that is not the only valid type of client interaction nor is it compliant with the developing JMS mapping work.
We should develop a thin proton wrapper client that lets us more easily recreate various client interactions with the broker and test compliance with AMQP 1.0 expected behaviors.
