Michael Osipov commented on MNG-5978:
-------------------------------------

The request is unclear to me too.

> test libraries should declare expected scope in their pom

> when using test libraries and forgetting to include the expected 
> <scope>test</scope> this could have your jars and wars inflated and could 
> also create some problems in your environment.
> I suggest to include the expected scope in your pom, and then when depending 
> on that library, checking against the actual pom.
> if those do not match then a warning should be triggered.
> also this should be recursive - the check should not emit a warning if the 
> using library is also a test library.
> I'd love to hear your comments on this Wish!
