如何让 NCrunch 使用特定的 appsettings.json 文件？

Question

There are some API tests in my solution that require setting from appsettings.json file. Local environment differs from DEV/PROD. Because of that I have main appsettings.json config and additional appsettings.Development.json with some settings specific for dev machine.

NCrunch was working fine grabbing settings from the Development config file until new configs were added:

appsettings.json
    appsettings.Development.json
    appsettings.Local.json
    appsettings.Production.json

I updated launchSettings.json file to use Local config. It works fine when I run it from VS, but NCrunch still uses Development. Is there any way to make it use Local?

Not tried this, but it should get you close.

1. In Visual Studio, go to Extensions->NCrunch->Configuration
2. Select your-project - Shared Settings (or other scope, whatever you prefer)
3. In the bottom pane in the 'General' expander, select 'Custom environment variables'.
4. Add a key / value as ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT and Development.
