How to send transaction without estimating gas?

[Pet3ris]

Right now I've got a transaction that reverts at the gas estimation step, which means it does not get sent to the underlying Hardhat node. Is there a way to force the transaction to get broadcast?

I'm using the syntax:

await Contract.connect(<signer>).<method>(<args>)

I can see that the estimateGas step failed and no sendTransaction was attempted:

You can pass in a gasLimit override, that will skip the gas estimation.

await Contract.connect(<signer>).<method>(<args>, {gasLimit: 1000000});
