Mule MUnit test with Maven, mule.home property is not defined

In our Mule projects we have a common properties file that is referenced from a number of Mule projects. To do this we put the file in the Mule installation directory and reference it in a flow in each project:

<spring:beans>
    <context:property-placeholder
    location="file:///${mule.home}/conf/common.properties" />
</spring:beans>

This works fine for running the projects in Mule and from Anypoint Studio as in both cases mule.home is defined. It also works for running the MUnit test suites defined in the project from Anypoint Studio.

However when running the tests from Maven mule.home is not defined and the tests fail. I've tried adding a definition to mule.home to the Maven settings.xml file, but that doesn't work.

Any suggestions on how I can run the tests from Maven and keep the mule.home reference in the property flow? Or perhaps is there a way to have an alternative configuration in the property flow for when the flow is called from the test suite?

Alternatively how should we reference a common property file from multiple Mule projects?

Versions: Mule runtime: 3.6.2

Munit: 1.1.0

Maven 3.3.1

Alternatively you can set mule.home programmatically perhaps in a parent Abstract test class:

@BeforeClass
public static void setUp() {
    System.setProperty("mule.home", "whatever");
}

Try this:

mvn -Dmule.home=yourpath test

This should do the trick. Hope this helps.
