I don't know whether it's better, but I had to build slf4j-simple for 
maven. Here is what I have:

(define java-slf4j-api-tests
   (package
     (inherit java-slf4j-api)
     (name "java-slf4j-api-tests")
     (arguments
      `(#:jar-name "slf4j-api-tests.jar"
        #:source-dir "slf4j-api/src/test/java"
        #:tests? #f))
     (inputs
      `(("slf4j" ,java-slf4j-api)
        ,@(package-inputs java-slf4j-api)
        ,@(package-native-inputs java-slf4j-api)))
     (native-inputs '())))

(define-public java-slf4j-simple
   (package
     (inherit java-slf4j-api)
     (name "java-slf4j-simple")
     (arguments
      `(#:jar-name "slf4j-simple.jar"
        #:source-dir "slf4j-simple/src/main/java"
        #:test-dir "slf4j-simple/src/test"))
     (inputs
      `(("slf4j" ,java-slf4j-api)
        ,@(package-inputs java-slf4j-api)))
     (native-inputs
      `(("tests" ,java-slf4j-api-tests)
        ,@(package-native-inputs java-slf4j-api)))))

The idea is that maybe other packages in the slf4j archive will need 
these tests, so I built a package for them.

Otherwise your version LGTM too. Why do you need to build in the current 
directory and not in build/test-classes? If you build in 
build/test-classes, I think you don't need to set CLASSPATH in the 
build-slf4j-api-test-helpers phase.
