I'm talking about putting WicketTester in a -tests classified jar. It
is a 100% core functionality that has to be in the default, normal
distribution without having to resort to include yet another jar file
in your pom.

Don't get me wrong, I like the fact that -util, -core and -request are
merged into one jar. I am not fan of feature jar-itis where each
class/package gets its own jar.

As for removing Assert.* from our code base, or from WicketTester and
replacing them with Args: this removes the IDE support for catching
the special JUnit messages and makes them become plain errors instead
of failures: the exceptions will not get the special treatment that
makes Java development so nice.
