Dynaconf can't find settings file when using pytest

Where do I put settings files / How do I configure Dynaconf so it will work with pytest? Currently I get the following error:

AttributeError: 'Settings' object has no attribute 'LOGGING'

It seems like Dynaconf is looking for the files in the tree the python command was invoked from and not relative the module itself.

Here is how my project structure (simplified) looks like:

.
├── ...
├── project
│   ├── app.py
│   ├── conf.py
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── settings.toml
└── tests
    ├── conftest.py    
    └── test_app.py

My conf.py:

from dynaconf import Dynaconf

settings = Dynaconf(
    envvar_prefix="DYNACONF", settings_files=["settings.toml", ".secrets.toml"],
)

Thanks in advance

Oh well I found a solution.

import os

from dynaconf import Dynaconf

current_directory = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

settings = Dynaconf(
    envvar_prefix="DYNACONF", settings_files=[f"{current_directory}/settings.toml", f"{current_directory}/.secrets.toml"],
)

I will keep this issue open for a bit, maybe I can get feedback if this is an appropriate solution or not

Does it mean we need a fix in the documentation so the others who start working with it do not have to spend few ours figuring it out as I did?
