POM for common libraries

[jp4]

I have a project (common-data-access) of type pom that is used to group a set
of common libraries for reuse.  In this case, I group all libraries that I
need for a data access project.  In each data access project in include
common-data-access as <type>pom</type>.  I have encountered two issues and I
was hoping someone could help me.  First, it appears as though artifacts
that are defined as <scope>provide</scope> in common-data-access are not 
recognized by projects that include common-data-access.  The oracle jar file
is one example.  In addition, it appears as though dependencies with a test
scope are also not recognized by projects that include common-data-access.  

Below is my pom.xml, am I doing something wrong here?
