`logback-test.xml` in the Main Avro resources folder can cause runtime issues for applications

[kyle-silver]

Because this test logback file (located here) is in the main directory, it gets packaged and deployed as part of the release artifact. I have some apps running with Spring Boot 2.7.x and Logback and have observed that this test configuration file is getting picked up by Logback and causing the app to fail on startup due to a (perceived) misconfiguration. I believe this can be remediated by moving logback-test.xml to the avro/test/resources directory.

I am happy to open a pull request with this change myself but wanted to file an issue first and hear feedback from the maintainers. I am a huge fan of the work you do on this library

Sounds like a flaw, unintended so PR (against 2.14 branch so I can merge forward) would be most welcome.
Thank you for reporting this and bonus points for asking before PR!

[kyle-silver]

Absolutely. One question, though—since that file doesn't exist on the 2.14 branch, will this need a separate commit on the 2.15 branch to remove it once the test file is added?

[cowtowncoder]

Oh ok then just do that for 2.15 branch. I haven't had a chance to check (traveling this week).

Hope you don't mind me raising this PR with reaching out first. Just trying to help out, as we're also experiencing our apps failing on start up.
