-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Dependency version from test scope leaks into compile 
scope
                 Key: MDEP-558
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-558
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: analyze
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.10, 2.8
            Reporter: Andrei Tomashpolskiy


Despite test scope being non-transitive [1] it's still used to resolve versions 
of compile dependencies. This might be causing issues in IDEs that rely on the 
Dependency plugin to assemble the application's classpath.

E.g. for the following project configuration *javax.servlet-api* version is 
resolved to *3.0.1* (using nearest-first strategy to resolve conflicts):
{noformat}
project1
|-- project2:compile
|..|-- jetty-server:compile
|....|-- javax.servlet-api:3.1.0:compile
|-- jersey-test-framework-core:test
|..|-- javax.servlet-api:3.0.1:compile
{noformat}

My understanding is that it should rather be resolved to 3.1.0, because version 
3.0.1 stems from the test scope and should be ignored (AFAIK Maven Shade plugin 
works in that way).

Please see a runnable code example in

Thank you!
