Maven uses class from wrong Library

Question

i am currently working on a Maven project with alot external Libraries. Now i have following Issue...

Issue: I have two different Libraries(lets say Library A & Library B ) and both have a class(lets name the class abc.class ) with the same classname but the classes dont have the same Implementation! Now one of my testclasses uses abc.class from Library A , which is the wrong class/library. This testclass should use abc.class from Library B . I cant just delete the Library A because i needed also for other testclasses.

My SetUp:

• Maven: apache-maven-3.6.1
• Java: jdk11
• IDE: IntelliJ

My Question: Is there a way to pin diffrent Libraries for specific classes? So i could pin the Library B to my failing testclass, so it can use the right Library and the right implementation for the abc.class .

In the best case, i would like to fix it in the POM :)
Pls let me know if its somehow possible.

Answer 1

No.

You need to have compatible versions of the class.

Or even better only include one type of Class to your build.
