test scope in dependencyManagement does not appear to be transitive to dependent subProjects --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-1921 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1921 Project: Maven 2 Type: Bug Versions: 2.0.1 Environment: jdk1.5.0_04, mvn 2.0.1 Reporter: Brian Bonner If we have a root pom.xml that includes dependencyManagement and specifies the scope on a dependent component to be test, it's picked up in a subproject, but it's does not appear to be transitive. e.g. parent pom <dependencyMgmt> <dependency> <artifactId>easymock</artifactId> ... <scope>test</scope> </dependency> </dependencyMgmt> child pom <dependency> <artifactId>easymock</artifactId> </dependency> peer pom <dependency> <artifactId>child</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <artifactId>easymock</artifactId> </dependency> The peer pom gets compilation exceptions indicating that it can't find the package specified by the dependent jar easymock. The easymock jar is nowhere in the classpath. Judging by this: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html the test scope should be transitive.
