Spring @ContextConfiguration how to put the right location for the xml

Our Tests look like this (using Maven and Spring 3.1):

@ContextConfiguration
(
  {
   "classpath:beans.xml",
   "file:src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring/applicationContext.xml",
   "file:src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring/dispatcher-data-servlet.xml",
   "file:src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring/dispatcher-servlet.xml"
  }
)
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
public class CCustomerCtrlTest
{
  @Resource private ApplicationContext m_oApplicationContext;
  @Autowired private RequestMappingHandlerAdapter m_oHandlerAdapter;
  @Autowired private RequestMappingHandlerMapping m_oHandlerMapping;
  private MockHttpServletRequest m_oRequest;
  private MockHttpServletResponse m_oResp;
  private CCustomerCtrl m_oCtrl;

// more code ....
}

That's the reason not to put configuration into webapp.

As far as I know, there are no good ways to access files in webapp folder from the unit tests. You can put your configuration into src/main/resources instead, so that you can access it from your unit tests (as described in the docs), as well as from the webapp (using classpath: prefix in contextConfigLocation).
