Body:
I agree - would love to see it implemented.
On another note - if we're speaking of dependency types including *runtime*
dependencies, we should add a maven-run-plugin. Something along the lines of
"check project type, run a mainclass, or start-web-start+activate browser" or
something of the sort.
I'll dive into that...

Here is an overview of the issue:

Key: MAVEN-1495
Summary: Test dependencies are NOT build / use dependencies
Type: Improvement
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Minor
Original Estimate: 2 days
Time Spent: Unknown
Remaining: 2 days
Project: maven
Components:

Reporter: bryan thompson

Environment: all
Description:
Feature: The POM <dependency/> element should be modified to have an well-known
attribute that identifies whether a dependency applies to the build, runtime,
or tests. The site generation plugin should be modified to reflect this
distinction in the generated documentation.
Rationale: I find that I need to include various jars for testing purposes
that are not a dependency for building or otherwise using the artifact
generated by my maven project. At present, there is no way to mark a
"dependency" as "test-only" such that it does not show up on the "Dependencies"
report in the generated site documentation. This results in misleading
documentation (in the generated site) and confounds the notion of a project
test dependency with a project build or runtime dependency.
Thanks,
