I am writing Junit for my Java projects. I am have an issue like

when I am removing This I am able to run test cases but not my application. and I am adding it I am able to run application not test cases. My few of the test cases are getting failed.

I am using Spring 3.14 with Java 17.

resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { details ->
    if (details.requested.group == 'jakarta.servlet') {
    details.useVersion '5.0.0'
    }
}

This is build.gradle file.
