Can anyone recommend a tool for quickly posting test messages onto a JMS queue? The tool should allow the user to enter some data, perhaps an XML payload, and then submit it to a queue? I know I could probably knock something up reasonably quickly to do this but I thought I'd ask first before reinventing the wheel. Cheers.

This answer doesn't apply to all JMS brokers, but if you happen to be using Apache ActiveMQ, the web-based admin console (by default at http://localhost:8161/admin) allows you to manually send text messages to topics or queues. It's handy for debugging.
