Hi all, I am following <https://ktor.io/docs/testing.html#hocon> guide on testing, the issue I am facing is when I do `withApplication(testEnv)` it doesn't load my module that is defined in `application.conf` but when I do `withTestApplication(Application::main)` it loads the module but the configuration is missing, not sure what am I doing wrong here?

Where is your `application.conf`  file is located?

It should reside in the resources of the test source set.

oh, so I need to have different set of config or I guess I can somehow import `main` config file and change in test what I want?

nop, that is not it, just checked and it loads `application.conf` from main resources without a problem

You can use `ConfigFactory.parseFile(File("/path/to/file")` code to load a config from local filesystem.

I am using `ConfigFactory.load("application.conf")` just fine, it loads the config file from `main/resources` the issue is that it doesn't start he module specified in that config

Could you please try to introduce a syntax error to your config to check that it's actually used?

If the config file doesn't exists in the test source set then there would be no error.

Could you please share a complete code for your test?

```
    @Test
    fun `test something`() {
        withApplication(createTestEnvironment { HoconApplicationConfig(ConfigFactory.load("application.conf")) }) {
            with(
                handleRequest(<http://HttpMethod.Post|HttpMethod.Post>, "my/endpoint") {
                    addHeader(HttpHeaders.ContentType, ContentType.Application.Json.contentType)
                    setBody("")
                }
            ) {
                assertEquals(HttpStatusCode.OK, response.status())
            }
        }
    }```

You need to set the `config` property to make it work. So before `HoconApplicationConfig(`  add `config =`
