Config element mocking is broken in BT 2.34.0

[pe1pip]

Description

@Michaelpalacce it seems you actually broke more than you fixed. Following test (demo.test.ts) works as expected in 2.33.0, but throws in 2.34.0:

Steps to Reproduce

function getConfigurationElementByPath (path: string, name: string): ConfigurationElement {
  const configurationElementCategory = Server.getConfigurationElementCategoryWithPath(path)
  const configurationElements = configurationElementCategory.allConfigurationElements

  const configurationElement = configurationElements.filter(function (configurationElement) {
    return configurationElement.name === name
  })

  if (configurationElement.length !== 1) {
    throw new Error('too many or zero matches')
  }
  return configurationElement[0]
}

function demo (): string {
  const environment = getConfigurationElementByPath('web-root', 'Environment')
  return `demo${environment.getAttributeWithKey('demo').value as string}`
}

describe('demo test', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    const envCfg = Server.createConfigurationElement('web-root', 'Environment')
    envCfg.setAttributeWithKey('demo', 'Mock', 'string')
  })
  afterEach(() => {
    Server.removeConfigurationElementCategory(Server.getConfigurationElementCategoryWithPath('web-root')) // cleanup all cfgElements
  })
  it('x', () => {
    expect(demo()).toBe('demoMock')
  })
})

Expected behavior:

expected behaviour is environment.getAttributeWithKey('demo').value to equal 'Mock', but environment.getAttributeWithKey() returns null, even if the attribute exists.

@Michaelpalacce just to check, this requirement is still valid, right?

Hi,

I think it is.

Hi Guys,

sorry for responding so slowly... I just did a few tests and can confirm that this is still an issue with 2.37. Basically, cfg el mocking is broken in all 2.34 and up.
