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: 
             core

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: bryan thompson

    Created: Fri, 5 Nov 2004 7:54 AM
    Updated: Thu, 10 Feb 2005 5:08 AM
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,
