Configuring a System Under Test can be exhausting if you have a lot of library dependencies. In order to make the configuration process a little easier, the Maven Runner uses your existing pom.xml to automatically
resolve dependencies needed for the execution of specifications, whereby only the dependencies tag is read. Artifacts found will be resolved and added to the classpath of the runner. The project's artifact itself will
also be added to the classpath.
Further information on the Maven Runner can be found here.
