It's not the cleanest, but it works:

public class MyTestListener extends AbstractTestExecutionListener {

    @Value("${my.value}")
    private String myValue;
    @Autowired
    private MyBean myBean;

    @Override
    public void beforeTestClass(TestContext testContext) throws Exception {
        testContext.getApplicationContext()
                .getAutowireCapableBeanFactory()
                .autowireBean(this);
    }
}
