Play: Run tests with custom GuiceApplicationLoader
I have a CustomApplicationLoader extends GuiceApplicationLoader in which I load the conf file. When I run tests in ApplicationSpec, the values taken from certain conf files are missing, which presumably means my CustomApplicationLoader was not executed.
Any idea how to pass CustomApplicationLoader to FakeApplication or any other approach for reading values from conf files during tests? Or shouldn't it even work out of the box?

So, I found out that I can add a custom GuiceApplicationLoader by passing it as an argument to the WithApplicationLoader like this:
@RunWith(classOf[JUnitRunner])
class ApplicationSpec extends Specification {
"My component" should {
"load environment specific conf values loaded in by CustomApplicationLoader" in new WithApplicationLoader(new CustomApplicationLoader) {
...
}
}
}
