Allow JavaDocs to generate for Test Code
----------------------------------------

                 Key: MJAVADOC-100
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-100
             Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Jacob Robertson
            Priority: Minor


I have two use cases.

First, my team is trying to be very diligent in creating JavaDocs for all our 
code.  We have checkstyle checking that javadocs are written for every method 
within test code.  So, since we're putting this much effort into our javadocs, 
it's a "nice to have" for those javadocs to actually be generated on the 
project site.

Second, I have some "Test Harness" code in one project, and this is re-usable 
code which many projects should make use of in their test code.  I would like 
to have that code's javadocs available on its project site for obvious reasons.

There is probably some workaround that I could figure out and make this work, 
but much like the Checkstyle plugin has an includeTestSourceDirectory property 
for its goal, adding that type of property to the javadoc plugin would be an 
intuitive way to turn on javadocs for test code.
