In fact since loadProperties() is automatically called in
CatalinaProperties when loading the class, we don't need to make it
protected. Adding

+        // Trigger loading of catalina.properties
+        CatalinaProperties.getProperty("foo");

to TomcatBaseTest and of course having jarsToSkip in the startup copy of
catalina.properties is enough.
