5417975946 addressed a regression in the
logic for catching when the newer module meta-arguments are used in
conjunction with the legacy practice of including provider configurations
inside modules, where the check started incorrectly catching situations
where the legacy nested provider configuration was in the same module
as the child call using one of those meta-arguments.
This is a regression test to catch if a similar bug arises in the future.
Since it's testing validation rules that apply to an entire configuration
tree, it ended up in a rather idiosyncratic location under the "configload"
package, rather than directly in "configs". The "configs" package only
knows how to load one module at a time, so it's harder to write a test
like this in that context. Due to it being further removed from the code
it is testing, I included a test for the correct error too in order to
increase the chance that we'll learn if future changes in the "configs"
package invalidate this regression test.
I've verified that this new test fails without the change made in the
earlier commit.
This is part of a general effort to move all of Terraform's non-library
package surface under internal in order to reinforce that these are for
internal use within Terraform only.
If you were previously importing packages under this prefix into an
external codebase, you could pin to an earlier release tag as an interim
solution until you've make a plan to achieve the same functionality some
other way.
