Stefan Bodewig commented on MAVENUPLOAD-1619:
---------------------------------------------
As both of you are certainly aware, I'm not a Maven person at all.
If I mark the dependency as optional, what will be Maven's default behavior for
our TestNG users who happen to use Maven for their builds?
Will Maven download JUnit as well unless they explicitly override it?
I really want the default to be that the transitive dependency is ignored and
user's need to ask for JUnit explicitly.
If this can be done with an optional dependency I'll be happy to add it.
Oh, and if you could tell me how to mark a dependency as optional, I'd really
appreciate it.
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html
doesn't contain the word "optional".
