The moral of the story appears to be "don't use the built-in compile and
test facility of Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA, always use the Maven or Ant
build capability". Or better still Gradle of course.
As has been pointed out to me elsewhere Gradle doesn't have the
constraints Maven has and can do what I was asking for quite easily.
Of course various emails have pointed out to me that what I was asking
for is not actually what I want.
So I am going to have:
src/main
src/test
src/integration-test
src/system-test
and hope that someday Maven and Gradle do the right thing by default.
It seems strange that the taxonomy of testing has been known for 35+
years and yet the latest tools think there is but one notion of testing
that needs supporting.
