Simpler to keep everything in one compose file if you can, under a test service that doesn’t build unless explicitly named

Un-weird that env var and use the normal, boring feature of defining environment under your test service

The variable is already in the environment, it just doesn’t have a default because it’s required for each container

You can reference envs from the host in docker compose, so code it in instead of manually passing tribal knowledge in: https://stackoverflow.com/a/73826410

Yep, you can also set defaults, required, alternates, etc

This discussion did help me realize that my problem was that I forgot an !override on one of my service’s options. Now it’s just merging the two compose files and setting the profile, thanks for that!
