How should I discover test-resource files in a Maven-managed Java project?

Question

I have a project that uses the normal Maven structure, e.g.

module
\\ src
  \\ main
    - java
    - resources
  \\ test
    - java
    - resources

Just for completeness, wanted to point out the way to get this without having to grab the current instance of the ClassLoader, using ClassLoader#getSystemResource. This example does the work without having to place a file at the top.

//Obtains the folder of /src/test/resources
URL url = ClassLoader.getSystemResource("");
File folder = new File(url.toURI());
//List contents...
