Change global config properties during testing

<h3><strong>This functionality is supported only for global configuration file in YAML-format (application.yml)!</strong></h3><p>If you need to change any property from the YAML global configuration file during testing, you should use tag <strong>&lt;configuration&gt;</strong> in scenario.xml. Write an appropriate comment and specify as many properties as you need inside the tag. To change property, you need to specify its full path from the highest level and the desired value. The value should have the same type as the property has in global configuration file.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let's take a look at the following configuration file:</p><table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="code" data-macro-id="f9bf9958-47fb-4275-a917-89e66dbd5ad1" data-macro-parameters="language=yml|title=application.yml" data-macro-schema-version="1" style="background-image: url(https://wiki.knubisoft.com/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e2NvZGU6bGFuZ3VhZ2U9eW1sfHRpdGxlPWFwcGxpY2F0aW9uLnltbH0&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>accountManagement:
  registration:
    emailRegistrationEnabled: true
    phoneRegistrationEnabled: true</pre></td></tr></table><p><br /></p><p>To change values of <strong>emailRegistrationEnabled</strong> and <strong>phoneRegistrationEnabled</strong> properties, you need to specify their full path using dot separation, in our case <em><strong>accountManagement.registration.emailRegistrationEnabled</strong></em> and <em><strong>accountManagement.registration.phoneRegistrationEnabled</strong>. </em>So in test scenario it should be the following:</p><table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="code" data-macro-id="dc6bade7-8799-42be-aab3-17bbb3233a19" data-macro-parameters="language=xml|title=scenario.xml" data-macro-schema-version="1" style="background-image: url(https://wiki.knubisoft.com/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e2NvZGU6bGFuZ3VhZ2U9eG1sfHRpdGxlPXNjZW5hcmlvLnhtbH0&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>...
&lt;configuration comment="Disabling registration via phone, enabling registration via email">
    &lt;property path="accountManagement.registration.phoneRegistrationEnabled" value="false"/>
    &lt;property path="accountManagement.registration.emailRegistrationEnabled" value="false"/>
&lt;/configuration>
...</pre></td></tr></table><p>So, the next step in the scenario, the system will behave as the properties above have the value <strong>false</strong>. Such behavior will last until the end of the scenario or until properties' values will be changed again.</p><p>You can specify as many properties as you need. Also you can use the tag <strong>&lt;configuration&gt; </strong>itself as many times as you need.</p><h4>Also it's required to have stated paths of properties in GlobalConfigurationPathResolver.</h4><h1>How to add required path to GlobalConfigurationPathResolver</h1><p>To add path which you need to GlobalConfigurationResolver, you should use command for invoking generator which adds appropriate paths to GlobalConfigurationPathResolver:</p><table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="code" data-macro-id="2b43cd61-c0fd-4776-b683-2b8e3c67123d" data-macro-parameters="language=bash" data-macro-schema-version="1" style="background-image: url(https://wiki.knubisoft.com/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e2NvZGU6bGFuZ3VhZ2U9YmFzaH0&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>cmd/run generate cfg-with-resolver</pre></td></tr></table><p>The command above generates GlobalConfigurationPathResolver with ALL properties from global configuration file if it has YAML-format.</p><p>If you don't need all properties to be included in GlobalConfigurationPathResolver, you can list only required the highest level properties to include. For this separate them with comma <strong>(no spaces, just comma!)</strong>.</p><p>For example, if you has the following configuration file</p><table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="code" data-macro-id="dbbbe178-5dc2-4b2a-ae4a-7aa351b7058b" data-macro-parameters="language=yml|title=application.yml" data-macro-schema-version="1" style="background-image: url(https://wiki.knubisoft.com/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e2NvZGU6bGFuZ3VhZ2U9eW1sfHRpdGxlPWFwcGxpY2F0aW9uLnltbH0&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>googleAuth:

delaysTracking:
  api-duration: 5000ms

  service-duration: 5000ms</pre></td></tr></table><p>and you need to generate paths only for properties <strong>companyName </strong>and <strong>api-duration</strong> to change their values via tag &lt;configuration&gt;, you should run the following command from the project root directory:</p><table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="code" data-macro-id="ad46b621-ff99-4cf7-9bbb-223253a3f4fe" data-macro-parameters="language=bash" data-macro-schema-version="1" style="background-image: url(https://wiki.knubisoft.com/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e2NvZGU6bGFuZ3VhZ2U9YmFzaH0&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>cmd/run generate cfg-with-resolver googleAuth,delaysTracking</pre></td></tr></table><p><br /></p><p>You can also specify values to exclude from generation considering that all properties's paths will be generated. For that use the flag <strong>'-e'</strong> or <strong>'--exclude'</strong> and list required separated with comma the highest level properties to exclude.
