Maven, junit and Mock Classes

[Jan Torben Heuer]

I have have (again) a design question, where to place "Mock" Classes for
junit.

Example:

project-core (depends project-dao)
        public TestSomeCoreFunctions {
                DAO dao = new MockDAO();
                ...
        }


project-dao
        public interface dao {
                public AccessObject1 do();
        }

        public interface AccessObject1 {
        
        }



 
project-another module (depends project-core)
        public TestSomeThing {
                DAO dao = new MockDAO();
                AccessObject1 ao = new MockAccessObject();
                ...
        }

So where can I put both Mock Objects?

Obviously not in the dao, because testclasses are not dependencies.
So I would end up with a project for each or all MockObjects.

project-dao-mock (depends project-dao)
        public class MockAccessObject implements AccessObject1..


This means in turn, that I COULD NOT use the mock objects in the project-dao
(circular dependencies), but I NEED them for my junit tests...

So what? I'm confused ;-)
