Stock Eclipse JDT/WTP have no notion of test source folders. Any new source
folder you manually add is added to the
.settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component file.

m2e-wtp updates the eclipse project configuration to match the maven
settings when manually invoking "Maven > Update project". At that point it
makes sure the maven test folders won't be deployed (i.e removes offending
refs in org.eclipse.wst.common.component).

So yes, what you see is expected.

We could probably react to
the org.eclipse.wst.common.component modification, remove test folders on
the fly, but ideally, we'd need m2e-wtp to hook into WTP to prevent those
tests folders from being added to org.eclipse.wst.common.component in the
first place, that's something to discuss with the WTP team.
