The test task uses an empty map of system properties by default. If you want to
copy the system properties from the build process (and hence from the
command-line), you can do something like:
test {
systemProperties = System.properties
}
Alternatively, you might copy across just the properties you need:
test {
systemProperties environment: System.properties['environment']
}
