Right now drupal_web_test_case always uses the default profile when installing. This is problematic for a couple reasons - for example, I can't test an alternate profile to make sure it runs correctly.

I think the method of setting the install profile should be more "temporary" in that it won't effect other tests (if not reset). A parameter in setUp possible?

This might be better to move to core and discuss there and port back to 6.x.

This is NOT fixed in 6.x-2.x. All the core tests will still use the default profile.

Actually this is implemented in 6.x-2.x? I backported it myself from D7?

@David Reid - please show me in the code how I can set ALL tests to run using a profile other than 'default'. I see how I can override it per-test, but that's doesn't help with the core tests, etc, if I want to test them against some other profile.

I just checked and it's not possible to do that with the D7 core SimpleTest module, which this module's 6.x-2.x branch is a straight port from. So this would need to be something for a core patch, or SimpleTest 7.x-2.x.
