KlaasJan Elzinga commented on MNG-3118:
---------------------------------------

It just didn't feel like a patch version change. The fact that my build failed 
first with 2.0.8 and a week later with 2.0.7 doesn't feel right. 

Backwards compatibility could be accomplished by mvn querying the surefire 
plugin version and construct the path with respect to that version. FYI, I was 
using mvn in an environment where upgrades are not allways possible/easy 
(...and all the dvl'ers had to upgrade), I know how to work around it, which 
meant a code change or an upgrade. 

In the end I advised everyone to upgrade to 2.0.8. I'll stop commenting on this 
issue since this is not really the place for it anyway.

Thanks for the reaction though.

> Currently maven-project creates the test classpath in the order: classes, 
> tests-classes, dependencies.
> It would be better if test-classes came first because sometimes it is useful 
> for a test class to replace a main class during testing.  The opposite case 
> is not normally true (i.e. one would not want to override a test class with 
> one of the main classes).
