Hook in Spring Boot to plug in own RabbitMQ client?

I'm thinking of developing a simulation of RabbitMQ that can be used in unit tests where it is not possible to start up an entire RabbitMQ server or not possible to connect to one. This RabbitMQ simulation would obviously have the same API as the RabbitMQ Java client. Question is now how to plug in this API of the RabbitMQ simulation into Spring Boot instead of the original one from RabbitMQ. Is there some hook in Spring Boot so that this could be done?

It's quite difficult to simulate RabbitMQ.

Some people have has some success using an embedded Apache QPID server running amqp 0.9.1.

However, it doesn't support any RabbitMQ extensions, if you are using those.

You'd be better off using something like TestContainers.
