Does this mean I cannot write my unit tests using Java5 extensions to test Java 1.3 classes (required by some tools like esaymock 2, Watij, ...) ?
Please consider an alternative way, for example a maven.test.compile.target property. IMHO test compilation has no reason to be identical to application classes compilation.

Good point.

You might want to create a new issue for that. The test plugin is recycling many of the java plugin properties (including maven.compile.source, too). It might be good to have test properties defaulting to the java properties.
