Your problem *may* be caused by the jetty plugin not supporting the workspace projects exposed by m2e. Finding out would require debugging jetty:run. have you asked the jetty plugin maintainers?

Trying on IRC (I'm asking Jesse), I might also try the mailing list. But I take it it's a long shot. How or in what path are the workspace projects exposed by m2e in? I take it that the plugin doesn't like workspace projects very much, as when I run jetty:run-war it'll be expecting a jar/war dependency and complain about the workspace project dependency [1]

As Jesse McConnell points out, "that is something the jetty plugin will never do, it is intended to run on the command line and not care about editors or workspaces".

What I don't understand is why m2e (or m2e-wtp) is failing to expose the overlay's resources to the warTest classpath.
