So, if I understand correctly, the helper classes need to be in a jar. These classes now live in the same packages as the JUnit tests so should the jar exclude the actual test classes?
I then presume that the "scope" tag tells Maven to only look for the new jar if tests are being run, correct? Thanks! I appreciate the response.
