Niklas Matthies commented on MENFORCER-276:
-------------------------------------------

There is also the reverse situation: A test dependency may hide an upper-bound 
version violation in compile/runtime scope. The proposed feature would be 
useful for projects that want to ensure they don't have such violations in 
compile/runtime scope. Ideally one would be able to configure multiple 
executions of the rule with different scopes within the same build, to catch 
violations both with and without test scope.

> We have recently adopted RequireUpperBoundDeps in the Jenkins project 
> (https://github.com/jenkinsci/plugin-pom/pull/67). In order to implement it, 
> [[email protected]] added a support of ignoring particular dependencies in 
> MENFORCER-273.
> Sometimes we declare dependencies between plugins for testing purposes 
> (scope=test), and in such case RequireUpperBoundDeps fails the build if there 
> is a test dependency conflicting with the main code. Although it may cause 
> instability of tests (including false positive results), it does not really 
> impact the distributable package in our case.
> I propose to add another option for filtering of dependency scopes.
