## Summary

part of elastic/appex-qa-team#562

This PR adds support for custom server configurations by creating a
scout directory with the name matching the directory with configuration
files under `kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom`.

### Usage

1. Define custom configurations under
`kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom` by creating a new directory e.g.
`uiam_local` and adding configs for modes it should support (e.g.
`es.serverless.config`, **check kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/default
for naming** ):
```ts
   // custom/uiam_local/serverless/es.serverless.config.ts
   import type { ScoutServerConfig } from '../../../types';
   import { defaultConfig } from '../../default/serverless/serverless.base.config';

   export const servers: ScoutServerConfig = {
     ...defaultConfig,
     // Your custom configuration
   };
```

2. Create a new test directory under
<plugin|package>/test/scout_`<dir_name_with_custom_configs>`:
`x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local`
3. Keep the `<ui|api>tests` & `playwright.config.ts` design as in the
regular `scout` dir, use the same tags in spec files.
4. Run your tests as usual:

```bash
node scripts/scout run-tests --serverless=es  --config x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local/ui/playwright.config.ts

// to only start the server using configs from custom directory
node scripts/scout start-server --serverless=es  --config-dir uiam_local
```

### Important
- Tests defined in `scout_<config_dir_name>` directory are not included
in the main scout builder CI step, but rather in its own for custom
configs (to be added as a follow-up)
- They do not benefit from smart test balancing due to custom server
setup.
- **The tests won't be run in Cloud** due to custom servers setup
requirement, keep it in mind and mitigate the risks

## Summary

part of elastic/appex-qa-team#562

This PR adds support for custom server configurations by creating a
scout directory with the name matching the directory with configuration
files under `kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom`.

### Usage

1. Define custom configurations under
`kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom` by creating a new directory e.g.
`uiam_local` and adding configs for modes it should support (e.g.
`es.serverless.config`, **check kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/default
for naming** ):
```ts
   // custom/uiam_local/serverless/es.serverless.config.ts
   import type { ScoutServerConfig } from '../../../types';
   import { defaultConfig } from '../../default/serverless/serverless.base.config';

   export const servers: ScoutServerConfig = {
     ...defaultConfig,
     // Your custom configuration
   };
```

2. Create a new test directory under
<plugin|package>/test/scout_`<dir_name_with_custom_configs>`:
`x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local`
3. Keep the `<ui|api>tests` & `playwright.config.ts` design as in the
regular `scout` dir, use the same tags in spec files.
4. Run your tests as usual:

```bash
node scripts/scout run-tests --serverless=es  --config x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local/ui/playwright.config.ts

// to only start the server using configs from custom directory
node scripts/scout start-server --serverless=es  --config-dir uiam_local
```

### Important
- Tests defined in `scout_<config_dir_name>` directory are not included
in the main scout builder CI step, but rather in its own for custom
configs (to be added as a follow-up)
- They do not benefit from smart test balancing due to custom server
setup.
- **The tests won't be run in Cloud** due to custom servers setup
requirement, keep it in mind and mitigate the risks

support custom servers configuration (#244306)\n\n## Summary\n\npart of
https://github.com/elastic/appex-qa-team/issues/562\n\nThis PR adds
support for custom server configurations by creating a\nscout directory
with the name matching the directory with configuration\nfiles under
`kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom`.\n\n\n### Usage\n\n\n1. Define
custom configurations under\n`kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/custom` by
creating a new directory e.g.\n`uiam_local` and adding configs for modes
it should support (e.g.\n`es.serverless.config`, **check
kbn-scout/src/servers/configs/default\nfor naming** ):\n```ts\n //
custom/uiam_local/serverless/es.serverless.config.ts\n import type {
ScoutServerConfig } from '../../../types';\n import { defaultConfig }
from '../../default/serverless/serverless.base.config';\n \n export
const servers: ScoutServerConfig = {\n ...defaultConfig,\n // Your
custom configuration\n };\n```\n\n2. Create a new test directory
under\n<plugin|package>/test/scout_`<dir_name_with_custom_configs>`:\n`x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local`\n3.
Keep the `<ui|api>tests` & `playwright.config.ts` design as in
the\nregular `scout` dir, use the same tags in spec files.\n4. Run your
tests as usual:\n\n```bash\nnode scripts/scout run-tests --serverless=es
--config
x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/security/test/scout_uiam_local/ui/playwright.config.ts\n\n//
to only start the server using configs from custom directory\nnode
scripts/scout start-server --serverless=es --config-dir
uiam_local\n```\n\n### Important\n- Tests defined in
`scout_<config_dir_name>` directory are not included\nin the main scout
builder CI step, but rather in its own for custom\nconfigs (to be added
as a follow-up)\n- They do not benefit from smart test balancing due to
custom server\nsetup.\n- **The tests won't be run in Cloud** due to
custom servers setup\nrequirement, keep it in mind and mitigate the
risks","sha":"0b42c313bb20fb502573065537199f976381bb73","branchLabelMapping":{"^v9.3.0$":"main","^v(\\d+).(\\d+).\\d+$":"$1.$2"}},"sourcePullRequest":{"labels":["release_note:skip","backport:all-open","test:scout","v9.3.0","Team:obs-ux-management","v9.2.3","v9.1.9"],"title":"[scout]
