How to use GreenMail test suite in play framework?

Question

Is it possible to use GreenMail test suite in Play projects?

If so, how to use it?

Is there any plugin? (I found a GreenMail plugin for Grails but none for Play)

Or does Play support mail server testing by itself without GreenMail?

(I'm using Eclipse IDE by the way)

If you can use it with JUnit, you can use it with Play. The code below is just a regular play unit test:

public class GreenMailTest extends UnitTest {

  private GreenMail mail;

  @Before
  public void startGreenMail() {
    GreenMail greenMail = new GreenMail();
    greenMail.start();  
  }

  @Test
  public void myTestThatUsesGreenMail() {
    GreenMailUtil.sendTextEmailTest("to@localhost.com", "from@localhost.com", "subject", "body");
    assertEquals("body", GreenMailUtil.getBody(greenMail.getReceivedMessages()[0]));
  }

  @After
  public void stopGreenMail() {
    greenMail.stop();
  }

}

Hope that helps
