dependency:tree shows the tree of project dependencies. If an artifact is only defined in the dependencyManagement section, it's not a dependency of the project yet, it's basically only configured as kind of a template. Likewise, artifactItems only belong to the configuration of the maven-dependency-plugin and its configured executions, but are not project dependencies.

For a more detailed explanation of the difference between `dependencies` and `dependencyManagement` have a look at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2619598/differences-between-dependencymanagement-and-dependencies-in-maven?rq=1 – dunni Jan 21 '21 at 20:18
