I have made a unit test in the storagemanager project that uses a 
public static method in a class located in the util project.  When I 
compile and run the test in Eclipse it works fine.  Under maven, the 
source and unit test files compile fine, but if I run the tests the 
test cases invoking the method fail.  If I copy the static method into 
the unit test itself, then the test passes.

Does anyone know what's going on?  I don't want to duplicate utility 
methods in *all* my unit testcases because of this...

Sounds like a classpath problem to me.
Is the jar containing the class with the static method in your list of 
dependencies for the project whose tests fail?
Yes... I can run reactor and based on the inter-project dependencies it 
builds the individual subprojects correctly on the dependency tree (i.e. 
in the order util, storagemanager, stindex) In the pom for the 
storagemanager I have defined the util project as a dependency.

What is the exact error message you get?
This is a portion of the test output given by maven
test:test:

The errors occur in those tests that invoke the static method...  Again 
I reiterate... Dependencies have been set correctly... because otherwise 
the project would simply not compile...  However I can't tell why the 
unit tests are giving an error...
