Hi! You may some basic poms at my blog, http://thomassundberg.wordpress.com/
I would locate a test script in the project root and have it to point to a self-contained jar in ./target Another option would be to use the Resource plugin, http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/ and locate the script in any good directory under src.
