Joerg Schaible commented on MNG-2314:
-------------------------------------
Maven is right, since in your child POM you address a different artifact for
TestNG (the artifact without a classifier). The classifier is part of the
artifact selection, it is nothing that can be omitted.
> <dependencyManagement> not inherited more than one level
