'How to add classpath resource in application.yml file

With spring-boot, in case of application.properties file there is provision to specify classpath in value.

app.templates = classpath:app\mock-templates

How to specify same thing inside application.yml?

When specified like this, value read is not correct -

app:
  templates : 'classpath:app\mock-templates'

Value injection -

@Value("${app.templates}")
private String templateLocation; 
// value injected is "classpath:app\mock-templates", it should be <absolute-path>\app\mock-templates

spring-boot yaml

I just check that no matter if you use .properties or .yaml file you will have always classpath:app\mock-templates as an injected property value. And that's ok. Spring does not complete classpath: prefix to the real path in a time of reading from properties. That will be done next by ClassPathResource.

P.S. I think quotest also don't make any sense here.

I faced the exact same issue and there is a way to solve this. I tried using classpath but it does not work. Then I used this way

app:
  templates: "${PWD}/your/resources/dir/location"

In your application.yml file. It works for me just make sure your PWD will come from the path where your test are running. If you are using git hooks for running tests then mostly it's run from project root dir.

Was able to get this working by mentioning src/test/resources/<file_name> in application.yml

  truststore: src/test/resources/trust.jks
