This is a perfect example of when to use svn:externals (see the handbook for a
complete description). Basically, you want to do:

$ svn pset svn:externals "RemoteApplication http://marvin:8080/test2"
/path/to/test1/Applications

$ svn pset svn:externals "RemoteComponent http://marvin:8080/test3"
/path/to/test1/Components

(Both commands should each be on one line -- they got wrapped by the email)

When you set svn:externals on a directory, it will take the first token in the
value ("RemoteApplication" or "RemoteComponent", respectively), create a
subdirectory with that name, and check out the URL into that directory.

This doesn't actually import the contents of the URL into the current
repository. All it does is make "svn co" or "svn up" check out the second
URL as well; all three repositories in your case will remain separate.
