[jira] Commented: (MNG-3118) Test-classes should come before classes in the classpath

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3118?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_115904 ] 

Henri Tremblay commented on MNG-3118:
-------------------------------------

Hi, are you sure of the fix? Because I'm using maven 2.0.7 and test-classes was first in the classpath for almost a year now. I just tried with maven 2.0.8, doesn't work anymore. classes path seems to be first.

Is there a workaround?

Because this ordering is indeed extremely useful.

> 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).
