Why remove the tests for specific configurations?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The test mostly just test that it is possible to use the config interface. It does not necessarily test that each value is possible to set.
While a new config_test could be added for the executionspace config it would not really do anything other than check that the default values are correct. The benefit of adding it would be that we'd be able to check that it loads the base config, but loading the base config is not really necessary as long as the config implements the Config interface (which it does).
In other words: I can add the tests if we want to, but I don't see much value in having them.

Applicable Issues
Description of the Change
With my change for controller I noticed that I had to add a lot of the same code in multiple places. By utilizing composition here instead we will get cleaner code and it makes it easier to add new base configuration values instead of having to add it to every config separately.
Alternate Designs
Considered keeping it as is, but I think it's better to try and fix this now when it is easy instead of waiting and, potentially, not being able to.
Possible Drawbacks
I don't see any drawbacks of this design.
