What is CFG mostly used for?

CFG appears across multiple categories and is used in practical testing workflows.

How should I test CFG handling in CI?

CFG File Format FAQ

CFG (.cfg) files store generic application configuration in parser-defined key/value or block formats. Use sample cfg files to test configuration ingestion, normalization, and compatibility with legacy systems.
