SBT doesn't compile tests located in custom test source folders

I have 3 test source folders in my project. I have added the following key to build.sbt (version of SBT: 1.2.1):

sourceDirectories in Test := baseDirectory { base =>
  Seq(
    base / "src/test/common/scala",
    base / "src/test/unit/scala",
    base / "src/test/functional/scala"
  )
}.value

SBT correctly recognized the folders:

sbt test:sourceDirectories
...
[info] Set current project to service (in build file:/myprojectfolder/)
[info] * /myprojectfolder/src/test/common/scala
[info] * /myprojectfolder/src/test/unit/scala
[info] * /myprojectfolder/src/test/functional/scala

but test:compile doesn't produce any test classes in target/scala-2.11/test-classes and in result test task doesn't run any tests.

I'm using ScalaTest 3.0.5 although that doesn't seem relevant.

Any ideas why SBT ignores test scala sources during compilation?

Thank you manuzhang for useful comments. Indeed the following change did the trick:

instead of

sourceDirectories in Test := baseDirectory { base =>
  Seq(
    base / "src/test/common/scala",
    base / "src/test/unit/scala",
    base / "src/test/functional/scala"
  )
}.value

I used

unmanagedSourceDirectories in Test := baseDirectory { base =>
  Seq(
    base / "src/test/common/scala",
    base / "src/test/unit/scala",
    base / "src/test/functional/scala"
  )
}.value
