test: merge PR #13 test coverage improvements into main

Resolves merge conflicts between Phase 4.2 comprehensive test suite and
the test coverage improvement branch:
- config_test.go: take PR's better table-driven tests + keep main's extra tests
- coverage_test.go: keep main's Phase 4.2 comprehensive tests
