 /**
  * This is a test set for <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6772">MNG-6772</a>:
  *
- * The test POM references an import scope POM, which also has a dependency on an import scope POM.
+ * The pom.xml project POM imports dependencyManagement from bom-a POM, which also imports dependencyManagement from another bom-b POM.
  *
- * Both import POMs can only be found in the repository defined in the test POM.
- * It has a parent POM that defines the same repository with a different location.
- * The test confirms that the dominant repository definition (child) wins while resolving the import POMs.
+ * Both BOM POMs can only be found in the repository defined in the project POM, that overrides central repository.
+ *
+ * The test checks that central repository override from project pom.xml remains used to get bom-b POM.
