The discrepancy in docs is unfortunate, and the faq is wrong. The
logback-test.xml is searched first. I've corrected this problem in the SVN trunk.
My apologies for the confusion.

Hi,
I had a quick look in the code (trunk of logback-classic) and
logback-test.xml is used before logback.xml. This is however the
trunk, so the behavior could be different in the release you're using
(I did not check the 0.9.8 release). The faq should be corrected and
the best way to make this happen is if you file a jira. Could you
please do that?

I found conflicting information on the logback website.
http://logback.qos.ch/faq.html states
"If a file called logback.xml is found in the classpath, then it is used.
In case it is not found, a logback-test.xml file is searched, and used if
available.
If none of these files are available, logback uses its BasicConfigurator class to
create a simple default configuration that will only log to the console."
http://logback.qos.ch/manual/joran.html states
" 1. Logback tries to find a file called logback-test.xml in the classpath.
2. If no such file is found, it checks for the file logback.xml.
3. In case neither file is found, logback configures itself automatically using
the BasicConfigurator which will cause logging output to be directed on the
console"
I think that FAQ (http://logback.qos.ch/faq.html) is correct. If it is true, while running tests
using Maven (mvn test) it uses "src/main/resources" (home of logback.xml) and
"src/test/resources" (home of logback-test.xml). logback-test.xml will never override
logback.xml.
