Add them to your local repository with install:install-file [1] and add them to the pom file of project c as dependencies with scope 'test'.

I have my top pom.xml and then each subsystem (let's call them A,B,C)has it's own pom.xml. The pom.xml is version handled. How can I for project C add the 5 jars to the classpath and use them for writing test classes in project C. I don't want to affect the other projects (A and B). What is the simplest way to do this? cheers, //mike
