[erlang-questions] starting an app with an app.config file

[Phillip Toland]

If you put an app.config file into the test directory, rebar will pick
it up. If you don't want to have two app.config files, then you can
use the ct_extra_params option in rebar.config. The value of that
option will be passed on the command line of the beam process that
runs the tests, so you could pass in something like "-config
app.config" and have it use the existing config file.
