configuration.py

"""Basic configuration file for overall, general configuration, including secrets.

In a local setup, this file may be complemented with a file named local_configuration.py file,
which supersedes some or all of the CONFIG values, especially secrets, etc.

If a test wants to import this configuriation.py, it may read CONFIG values then using get_prop(...).
However, the test_runner.py will pass the whole CONFIG dict to each test anyway.

NOTE ⚠: local_configuration.py MUST NOT BE COMMITTED to github.
