How to change PaxExam port

Question

I have a successfully running suite of integration tests using PaxExam. I run the tests using Maven. The purpose of the tests is to test REST web services implemented through Apache CXF running in Karaf.

The tests run on my machine but fail during Jenkins build due to port conflict. The CXF uses port 8181 which seems to be the default Jetty port. Is there a way to change this port declaratively or programmatically in the tests suite?

I tried using a variety of PaxExam options listed here:

Thank you.

Do you use Pax-Exam-Karaf or do you use plain Pax-Exam, if it's Pax-Exam-Karaf use the following for your configuration:

KarafDistributionOption.editConfigurationFilePut("etc/org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg",
 "org.osgi.service.http.port", "alternative-port"),

if it's plain Pax-Exam:

systemProperty("org.osgi.service.http.port").value("8181")
