Description

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).
