Can not load driver class: org.sqlite.JDBC

I'm trying to set up my app's access to a SQLite database using the application.properties of Spring Boot file, but it's not recognizing the driver. How can I proceed so that when initializing with Gradle the application recognizes the driver?

build.grade :

buildscript {
    ext {
        springBootVersion = '1.5.9.RELEASE'
    }
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:${springBootVersion}")
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'

group = 'com.cryptotechnologies'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}


dependencies {
    compile('org.xerial:sqlite-jdbc:3.8.10.1')
    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa')
    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web')
    testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
}

application.properties :

spring.datasource.driverClassName=org.sqlite.JDBC
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:sqlite:smart-payments-db.db

Log :
