Configuration

Configuration

There are standard Cukes-REST configuration items, that are usually stored in "cukes.properties" file. Some properties are mandatory, but not necessarily have to present in the config file, since they have their default values assigned.

Is it possible to override default name for properties file by creating system environment variable called "cukes.profile", containing filename.

cukes.profile = "cucumber-profile.properties"
