Profile Specific application.properties Not Applied During Unit Test

Question

I'm writing integration tests, and I'd like to use Spring profiles to configure properties for each environment. However I'm finding profile specific application properties (e.g. application-dev.yml, application-prod.yml) in my src/test/resources directory aren't activated the same way they are in src/main/resources. It appears running tests with -Dspring.profiles.active=prod has no effect. Is it possible to activate a profile from the command line for tests?

Note: @ActiveProfiles isn't sufficient because I want to run the same tests against multiple environments.

I don't know if you have copied the file names from your workspace but 'applicaiton-prod.yml' has a typo in it. That could be the reason.

I found a similar issue reported in GitHub and the solution was applicable to my problem. The JVM system property spring.profiles.active wasn't getting picked-up in Gradle. So I modified my task as follows

integrationTest {
    systemProperties = System.properties
}
