Functional api test unable to load install-config-mysql database credentials

[baatractive]

Preconditions (*)

1. Magento CLI 2.3.5
2. WSL (Windows Sub-System For Linux)

Steps to reproduce (*)

1. Follow the steps as per the documentation: https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/get-started/web-api-functional-testing.html#howto and then try running the command: ../../../vendor/bin/phpunit --config phpunit_rest.xml

Expected result (*)

1. It should load the expected install-config-mysql.php file for database connection but it rather tries to connect with the default connection settings. For some reason the default connection is also throwing an error with this command. However, I could successfully run integration tests and also my default is fully functional when try to upgrade or clear any cache.

Actual result (*)

The API functional test uses app/etc/env.php but rather dev/tests/functional-api/config/install-mysql-config.php. I changed the default credentials to api functional ones and the tests started working.

@gwharton Yes that seems a similar issue and why is it closed? Was it resolved?

[gwharton]

Lack of interest from Magento team.

I'll take a look at this later today as I almost had a fix working when I last looked at this.

@gwharton That would be great help, thanks.
