> The parent of struts-bom pom file is the struts2-parent pom file. The 
> struts2-parent pom file includes a dependencyManagement section with many 
> non-struts dependencies (including test dependencies such as junit and 
> mockito), which are inherited in the struts-bom pom file. This is bad 
> practice for a bom file since consumers of that bom will have versions for 
> dependencies unrelated to struts locked down.
> See [https://www.garretwilson.com/blog/2023/06/14/improve-maven-bom-pattern] 
> and [https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2] for an example of how they 
> have both parent and bom pom files
