Yes it is. The documentation for that can be found at

http://wiki.ops4j.org/display/paxexam/Configuration+using+Maven+Plugin>.
Basically, any bundles you want loaded you just add as dependencies
with a provided scope in the pom and Pax Exam will take care of
loading them into the framework.

Yes, I need to override the ServletContainer to specify manually the
resource classes. In my application I'm actually using Guice, so it's
a bit easier thanks to the jersey-guice integration, although I still
subclass the GuiceContainer so I can have Guice inject a
WebApplication object and override the createWebApplication method to
return it. But that's so I can have Guice inject the standard JSR311
annotated fields, like @Param and friends. But, I'm not quite done
with that and it's a subject for a different day. :)
I do have some ideas on how the resource classes can be found by
scanning the bundle but I haven't had a chance to experiment with that
quite yet, but it should be possible.
