告诉gradle从src / test / resources而不是src / main / resources中选择persistence.xml

Question

I have a Gradle java web project being developed to run in Wildfly with the following structure:

- src/main/java
- src/main/resources
  \-- META/INF
      \-- persistence.xml
- src/test/java
- stc/test/resources
  \-- META/INF
      \-- persistence.xml

And the following build.gradle :

apply plugin: 'war'
apply plugin: 'eclipse-wtp'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8
version = '1.0'
jar {
    manifest {
        attributes 'Implementation-Title': 'Arch Project', 'Implementation-Version': version
    }
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

configurations {
    provided
}

sourceSets {
    main.compileClasspath += configurations.provided
    test.compileClasspath += configurations.provided
    test.runtimeClasspath += configurations.provided
}

dependencies {

    /* Java EE 7 API. */
    provided 'javax:javaee-api:7.0'

    /* JUnit for unit testing. */
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.1.2'

    /* DbUnit - Persitence unit testing. */
    testCompile 'org.dbunit:dbunit:2.5.0'
    testCompile 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.9'

    /* Hibernate. */
    testCompile 'org.hibernate:hibernate-core:4.3.7.Final'

    /* Hibernate provider for JPA. */
    testCompile 'org.hibernate:hibernate-entitymanager:4.3.7.Final'

    /* Hibernate dependency. */
    testCompile 'com.fasterxml:classmate:1.1.0'

    /* PostgreSQL for persistence tests context */
    testCompile 'org.postgresql:postgresql:9.3-1102-jdbc41'
} 

The persistence.xml file in the source folder src/test/resources is the one that I want to be used when I run my tests, instead the another from src/main/resources .
I need that because persistence.xml from src/main/resources relies on a JTA datasource defined in the Java EE application server, so, I believe it is not going to work on a local execution.
How can I configure that to run the tests successfully inside Eclipse and Gradle by the command gradle test ?

Thanks in advance.

to resolve this problem follow these instructions:

In Eclipse's project properties, Java Build Path->Order and Export, put your test folder above your src folder.

as well as talk that another issue: Use different JPA.persistence.xml in Eclipse depending on production or test environment
