It's controlled by a flag you can turn on and off. The reason it's off by 
default is because you may have something required to run the tests, but would 
show up as an unused dependency because it's not compiled in to the tests 
directly. An example could be hyper sql used to simulate a database. It's 
referenced via a jdbc connect string, but isn't compiled in, even in the tests.

(The unused dependencies are determined with bytecode analysis)

Very nice.

Brian, I wonder why the analyze goal of the maven-dependency-plugin just
take the compile dependencies for the Unused declared dependencies [1] ? Why
don't it take the test dependencies even though it also analyzes the test
classes ?
