in DRUAPAL 6-2 branch
Neither of these commands get the tests that were moved to the "simpletest/tests/functional" directory

CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal \
cvs checkout -r DRUPAL-6--2-4 contributions/modules/simpletest

CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal \
cvs checkout -r DRUPAL-6--2 contributions/modules/simpletest

So those tests didn't seem to get branched or tagged correctly. They also do not wind up in the tarball for download

Only way I could get the tests was by not specifying a branch or tag

CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal \
cvs checkout -d functional contributions/modules/simpletest/tests/functional

2.x branch doesn't work with 1.x tests.

If you are interested in porting some of them that would be great.

That was my next comment.

I was very confused, because I guess I was looking for the cvs commit that the tests were conscientiously deleted and because i didn't see that, I thought it was an oversight, my apologies.

So this is not an issue and can be closed I imagine and can act as informational notice in case this wasn't reported elsewhere.

No problem, as I understand this isn't clear.

I tried to explain this in the getting started page.
