Additional context

We noticed a deployment failure after the TaskCat version 0.9.37 update with the below error message. taskcat test run --no-delete --lint-disable --minimal-output --input-file /codebuild/output/src894954791/src/tests/ci/taskcat1.yml

• tee -a ./taskcat_output.txt version 0.9.37 [WARN ] : failed to load config from /codebuild/output/src894954791/src/tests/templates/.taskcat.yml [ERROR ] : ValueError '/codebuild/output/src894954791/src/tests/ci/taskcat1.yml' is not in the subpath of '/codebuild/output/src894954791/src/tests/templates' OR one path is relative and the other is absolute.

We tried deployment tests targeting to version 0.9.36 and it worked successfully.

Below is our folder structure.

solution-trademark-name -- ci ---- taskcat1.yml -- templates ---- solution-trademark-name.template

Currently, we have 100 similar folder for each AWS solutions. Temporarily we are targeting to TaskCat version 0.9.36 to continue running our deployment tests. Can you help us fixing this issue with v0.9.37.
