Currently, much of the server configuration is done through PluginConfig instances. This made sense in the Grails world, but it's not very helpful for a headless server, which will be the dominant mode. One suggestion would be to use server-main/src/main/resources/server.properties to set parameters for all server components. This should work as long as individual component tests either supply their own server.properties files, or tolerate not being able to find their properties.
