title: Unit Test in Maven requires access to the src/main/webapp Directory
body: <p>I am trying to unit test a webapp that I am developing in Maven/Eclipse. It is a Spring MVC webapp, and I need some unit tests to test my model controller.</p>
  
  <p>To do this, I need to use my webapp config .xml files to inject the controller, however, all my configuration (and other associated files that the configs reference) are in the src/main/webapp directory (as per Maven convention) - there are a lot of files in here that i need to reference in my tests, but they are not available when running the test as they are not on the classpath (Maven only seems to be adding src/main/java, src/test/java, src/main/resources, src/test/resources to the classpath but not src/main/webapps)</p>
  
  <p>I do not want to have to copy my entire webapp in to my src/test/resources folder just for the purpose of testing - is there any other way to be able to access them?</p>
  
  <p>I can get around this by changing the Eclipse "Run Configurations" to include this folder on the classpath, but that will not work when running the tests from the command line?</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone else encountered this? is there a know solution?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
