Add option to add 3rd party libraries to classpath

See original GitHub issue

When testing extensions with .withExtensionClassesFrom() it might become necessary to add 3rd party libs as dependencies to the classpath, as the extensions rely on these libraries. Currently that’s not possible.

A method like .withExtensionLibsFrom() might be a good solution.

This might be a friend (and I already use other ShrinkWrap libs in the project): https://github.com/shrinkwrap/resolver

I will research how to look for local maven dependencies, but if the project was not a maven?

We should start with a Maven version. It’s still the most used dependency management tool. If it works and there are people needing other approaches, I still can think about it.

Having a way to include deps from a repo is way more flexible than just using paths. When I have a dependency from a maven repo in my project, I dont’t want to copy the lib into my project, just for the test cases. Additionally, the path on my machine may be different (if it’s not part of the project directory) to other machines.
