Anders Kr. Andersen commented on MNG-1378:
------------------------------------------
In my eyes tests are not public by any way
It is interfaces and implementation that makes an artifact
Therefore extending test cases is not something I would do.
Not only should you make correct interfaces and implementation, now you also
need to consider making tests so they can be extended ..
This pattern would add complexity to an artifact.
I find the system is designed correct as it is !

> test-jar transitive dependencies are calculated as per compile scope rather
> than test scope.
> The situation is demonstrated nicely in it0077:
> * module sub1 has a test-scoped dependency of commons-lang
> * module sub2 has a test-scoped dependency of sub1 test-jar
> sub2 tests should inherit the commons-lang transitive dependency. For
> example:
