Robert Scholte commented on MNG-6545:
-------------------------------------
This will probably depend on the build/consumer-pom. This will ensure that only
known scopes end up in the poms in Maven Central and other remote repositories.
> Scope runtime test

> Key: MNG-6545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6545
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Dependencies
> Reporter: Olivier Cailloux
> Priority: Minor
>
> Maven should permit to include a dependency with scope restricted to test and
> runtime. Currently we have to choose between test and runtime, having both
> would be better.
> It would permit Maven to check that the test code does not depend (for
> compilation) on those libraries. And you wouldn’t get annoyed by completion
> proposals in your IDE coming from those runtime libraries.
> It is also conceptually more elegant and would make the intent clear to other
> contributers (“make sure your test code does not depend on this library”).
> Also discussed
