Github user stefanobortoli commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1915#issuecomment-212305774 We had a look at the Flink test dependency hierarchies and the thing is feasible but I it should be done in a separate PR. In fact, it requires a clerical review of all projects and a better management of the test's transitive dependencies that right now is very redundant. For example, if I need _flink-optimizer_ I do not need to specify also the dependencies on _flink-core_ and _flink-runtime_ because they are included transitively.
