It turns out it's because I'm using a custom Test task, it doesn't inherit
the main test configuration.
I had something like:
test {
systemProperties['db.username'] = 'bakala'
}
task myTest(type: Test) {
include ...
}
and I was running 'gradle myTest' which would ignored the settings.
Thanks for looking!
