!!! note
You need to take care with some values in YAML, especially integers, booleans, etc.

If the specified value definitely must be a string value, you should use quotes (`'...'`) to avoid
that the YAML parser automatically converts the value to be of a specific type.

If you wish to use _1_ (the number one), such as for the value to `parallel` option in the example
above, then this should be quoted, to avoid it being treated as the boolean `True`.

In other cases, the automatic conversion is useful, like for the `True` used above,
since `debug` is a boolean configuration option.
