Description (last modified by Collin Anderson)

Would be nice to be able to set DATABASES["default"]["TEST"]["ENGINE"] = "django.db.backends.sqlite3" for running tests in an in-memory database.

See also #30084: Setting DATABASES['default']['TEST']['engine'] to SQLite does not cause Django to use an in-memory database as expected

In my case I'd also need to set DATABASES["default"]["TEST"]["OPTIONS"] = {} because I don't want to pass those options to sqlite.

ENGINE and OPTIONS aren't options here:
