Brian Bonner commented on MNG-1921: ----------------------------------- You are correct, I had the example trimmed to illustrate the hierarchy issue. I'll try to include a more complete test case in the future. Child inherits parent (dependency mgmt info for test), but dependent peer was not getting the test scope dependency that the peer project it depended on had. I think the crux is that I didn't realize that test scope jars were not transitive. Can you help me understand why? If this *is* the case, then I'll just have to declare the test dependencies in each module that also needs the test scope jars. Is this correct?
