Matthew Beermann commented on MDEP-74:
--------------------------------------
It also doesn't deal well with Service Provider Interfaces (SPI), which are
implementations for a given interface that are loaded dynamically at runtime.
The code shouldn't and doesn't compile directly against the implementation, but
they ARE needed at test time. So, they show up as false positives in unused
declared dependencies.
Should the test scope perhaps just be ignored entirely?
