RE: Running surefire:test goal uses wrong resource file

Found the answer. Both persistence config files were using same persistence 
unit.

Subject: Running surefire:test goal uses wrong resource file

Using Maven 3.0.4 with a flat project structure:

|--Parent
|  |____ pom.xml
|
|--Module
| |____ pom.xml
|

I use JPA for persistence and my unit test code uses different persistence 
configuration file than the main source. I use an in-memory derby database for 
unit tests and the actual source uses an Oracle database. However, running "mvn 
clean test" updates the oracle database. It seems surefire's test goal uses the 
wrong resource file.

Would appreciate any input.
