I just created this issue: MPCONFIG settings are not easily testable in API tests #10128

Help! Am I missing something obvious?

One of the reason's why I wanted to migrate all tests to JUnit5 was making it possible to manipulate JVM options in a remote server

Now that we can have extension helpers, this is absolutely doable

Two thoughts:

  1. Manipulate files at a dir where Payara's config dir sources reads them - or -
  2. Hook into the settings API redesign to enable manipulation of JVM options via the API, too

@Oliver Bertuch hi! I was just showing this to sekmiller since he has a similar need but I realize I don't even understand what you were saying. :sweat_smile:

We CAN have extension helpers? Do we have them? Will they help?!?

In short, in API tests we'd love to be able to change MPCONFIG settings, like we do with database settings, as I wrote in that issue (#10128). Please help if you can. Thanks! :heart:

@Oliver Bertuch thanks for discussing this today during the container meeting! I just left a comment on this issue with a transcript and a link to the video, mentioning the timestamp.
