Alex D Herbert commented on NUMBERS-130:
----------------------------------------
I don't understand why this matters since the test classes are not released
artifacts.
At least leaving them public distinguishes them from anything that may be
package private as a helper method for testing and allows for quick scan over
the methods of a test class in an IDE which:
* Colours public methods differently to package private ones
* Allows for hiding all non public methods
* Adds any other public vs non-public functionality
> Test classes and methods can be package-private

> With JUnit 5, test classes and methods don't need to be {{public}}, unlike
> with JUnit 4. It suffices if they are package-private.
