I have also written some tests for the PEAR stuff where I need PEAR 
files for testing.
I created the PEARs and packaged them together with source code, 
.project and .classpath files.
I only committed the packaged PEAR to the SVN. If changes are necessary, 
the PEAR can be extracted and the source code can be changed.

Re: new testcase for running Pear inside CPE - question on how to package

Good idea to package the source in the Pear.

I take it that you "install" the pear everytime you run the test?  I'm
trying to avoid doing that, by having an "installed" pear, and using
relative paths.  I got it to work on Windows, but Joern reports a
problem which looks like it doesn't work on Linux due to some difference
here.  I'm working on getting my Linux platform up to date, so I can
look into this.  Let me know if you have any insight on how to do this,
better, please

Maybe you have an issue with the classpath separators ';' and ':'. The 
PEAR installer replace the classpath separator
with the platform separator during the PEAR installation.
