[Building Sakai] Debugging unit tests in Eclispe

[Bryan Holladay]

"mvn eclipse:eclipse" will bring in all that pom stuff, so the tests will
work.  I'm not sure why right clicking isn't bringing that option up.  It
does for Test classes (doesn't for non test classes).  I don't have any
other ideas or methods, I'll defer to someone on this list who has debugged
JUnit tests in another way.
