Yes, this is only generated when the JAR is packaged. It might be best
for your test cases to substitute in a known value here rather than
relying on it, unless you are doing something specific with the
version.

@project.version@ should be substituted in a copy, but resources are
processed after compilation so the timing is not correct. You'd need
to execute a specific plugin in the generate-sources phase.
