Hi Matthias,
If we use myfaces-test we'll have the exact same issues as with shale-test
artifacts. That is, myfaces-test-2.0 will depend on myfaces-api-2.0 whereas
myfaces-api-2.0 requires myfaces-test to be tested and released. However,
Maven provide another, yet less known, feature that allow you to release the
tests of your artifact into a repository as well. Under such structure we
could have myfaces-api developped along with its tests (in the test
subfolder) and have another external project use those tests as a dependency
using:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.myfaces.core</groupId>
<artifactId>myfaces-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>test-jar</packaging>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
The above refer to the deployed test part of the artifact rather than the
project itself. That would be a way to release a MyFaces test framework ever
running into the interdependency issues again.
Regards,
~ Simon
