Override function does not override as expected

[InputOutput]

What are you trying to achieve?

I'm trying to set the url config value for AngularJS from commandline using the --override option

What do you get instead?

The default url from acceptance.suite.yml

Provide console output if related. Use -vvv mode for more details. I've added a dump on the AcceptanceTester object to discover where the override actually ends.

./codecept run -vvv acceptance Cms/CmsWidgetsACept -o "modules: enabled: AngularJS: url: localhost.net"

Provide test source code if related

@DavertMik it is your feature, please respond.

[DavertMik]

Unfortunately it works for global config only. Suite configs are overriding global configs.

However you can try to update it like:

./codecept run -o "modules: config: AngularJS: url: localhost.net"
