> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JUnit 3.x support, Junit 4.x support, Maven Surefire
> Plugin, TestNG support
> Affects Versions: 2.5

>
> currently, the Surefire plugin uses resolveTransitively to obtain the
> Surefire provider (junit, junit4, junit47, testng). Each of these has a
> compile time dependency on the library itself to interact with their API.
> This results in downloading older versions as well as the newer one requested
> by the project (TestNG 5.7, JUnit 4.0, JUnit 3.8.1). There are two possible
> solutions to this:
> - alter the resolveTranstively method to exclude the artifact that is already
> available from the project
> - set the dependency to 'provided' in the providers POM
