We analyze the bright soliton interactions of a Bose-Einstein condensate in quasi-one-dimensional traps putting an emphasis on integrability break down due to a trapping potential. In particular, we derive a simple analytical model, which describes well all major features of soliton dynamics including chaos and energy exchange between interacting solitons induced by the trapping potential.
