Not getting Javascript,css files with RequestDispatcher

I working with servlet application my folder structure is :

WEB-INF ->
        -> Test
             -> index.html
             -> index.js
             -> index.css

Inside .java file I am loading index.html file as follow:

    RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("WEB-INF/Test/index.html"); 
    dispatcher.include(request, response);
    dispatcher.forward(request, response);

This is loading index.html file successfully on browser. But problem is with css , js files. This files are not loading in the resource ,I have loaded those as follow inside index.html :

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="index.css" />
<script src="index.js"></script>

The error I am getting is 404 resource not found error. So am I missing anything ? or should I take some other approach ?

Don't put those files in /WEB-INF. Move them up one level.

The /WEB-INF folder is meant to hold configuration files, the compiled application (/WEB-INF/classes) and the application dependencies (/WEB-INF/lib).
