Always getting 'used undeclared dependencies' warning when using TestNG

[Wim Deblauwe]

Hi,

when I run 'mvn dependency:analyze' I always get this warning:

[WARNING] Used undeclared dependencies found:
[WARNING]    junit:junit:jar:3.8.1:test

I assume it is because I use TestNG and that has a transitive dependency on
JUnit. Why should I declare a direct dependency on JUnit if I don't use
JUnit directly?

regards,

Wim
