Unfortunately one of the biggest limitations of the current regression tester is that it uses separate config files, which makes it harder than it should be to take a "normal" execution and turn it into a regression test, and also makes it impossible to test config scripts themselves directly.
If you look in tests/configs, though, several of the test scripts do include files from "../configs", so there might be a way to get it to work indirectly.
