its not possible for me to split the project into 2 different projects,
one holding the tests and the other holding the core. The idea basically
is we have project, and we would like to deploy it on an application
server and run the junit tests on the app server itself.
Isn't this doable with a plugin? or it is impossible because it goes
against the maven rules?
Thanks again

Not directly. What you can do is create another project (say, test-helper)
and use that as a dependency for both projects, i.e.
test-helper
|- depends upon junit, easymock, other test dependencies, etc. (compile
scope)
project-core
|- depends upon test-dependencies (test scope)
project-web
|- depends upon project-core:test-jar and test-dependencies (compile scope)
The test-helper project could also contain any testing utility code you
have.
The key point to keep in mind is that even though you can attach any number
of additional artifacts to a Maven project, they will all share a single POM
file including the set of dependencies.
HTH,
Justin
