when I use the command: mvn test, maven uses the main resources instead of the test ones in src/test/resources.
How can i make maven use the test resources rather than the main resources?
EDIT: I use Classloader to find my resources. Classloader can find resources from my src/test/resources directory, but it looks in src/main/java first for the resource.
ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
InputStream file =loader.getResourceAsStream("resource.xml");
Or is there any property I can use while running a maven command that will prioritize a classpath?
EDIT 2: I have figured out the problem, it does load from test/resources for the test, however my test involves deploying a webapp (integration testing) and from there when the webapp accesses the resource it uses src/main/resources. Is there a way to change the order of the classpath or make one precede the other for a WAR deployed in a jetty container?

A resource is a file in the class path folder structure for your project. This is important because your test resources will be put in your test-classes folder hierarchy and your main resources will be put in your classes folder hierarchy - both in your target folder. Maven has a standard directory layout.
By default, Maven adds a source file App.java and a test file AppTest.java in its default directory structure, as discussed in the previous chapter. Let's open the command console, go the C:\MVN\consumerBanking directory and execute the following mvn command.

Here you can see, Maven already added Junit as test framework.

Please check your target/test-classes directory for resource.xml. Your file should be here. If you find this file, I think the same name is the problem. Try rename the file for example to test-resource.xml. If the file doesn't exists in the test-classes directory, you should configure resource management in the maven pom.xml. Use maven-resouce-plugin. Hope it helps.

Can't you give it another name ?
The Loader doesn't know that your resource.xml is in src/main/resources or src/test/resources, it's only a path to look for. I think the problem it's not Maven, this is how the Loader should and it works. From Maven would you expect to discard all classes/resources from src/main/resources when doing the test phase ?
