this has been a known issue for some time. However, it will not be fixed in
Maven 1.x.
However, it is currently being added in development versions Maven 2.x, using a
more flexible mechanism that deals with the classpath correctly.

Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAVEN-1495
Summary: Test dependencies are NOT build / use dependencies
Type: Improvement
Status: Closed
Priority: Minor
Resolution: WON'T FIX
Original Estimate: 2 days

Environment: all
Description:
Feature: The POM <dependency/> element should be modified to have an well-known
attribute that identifies whether a dependency applies to the build, runtime,
or tests. The site generation plugin should be modified to reflect this
distinction in the generated documentation.
Rationale: I find that I need to include various jars for testing purposes
that are not a dependency for building or otherwise using the artifact
generated by my maven project. At present, there is no way to mark a
"dependency" as "test-only" such that it does not show up on the "Dependencies"
report in the generated site documentation. This results in misleading
documentation (in the generated site) and confounds the notion of a project
test dependency with a project build or runtime dependency.
Thanks,
