FWIW, this is a bad practice which we should recommend against. In databases which rely on sequences, after you've run some tests, the pk of the first record in a table is not necessarily 1 (because records in the table are removed when test transactions are rolled back, but sequence values are not re-used). Similar issues can arise in parallel execution of tests. [This is a bit off-topic for the pk-type setting idea, I know] Shai.
