Basically this was done to enhance the pass/fail criteria usage and allow the user to setup tests configurations according to specific needs.
Imagine a test series that may validate a hardware for some latencies (case #1) while another series would validate other criteria (case #2). The same test used in situation #1 will not have the same configuration (arguments) in situation #2. Scripting has to be done for this to achieve. The profile system does this for you. You just have to configure. Not only pass/fail criteria can be set since the profile system simply runs command lines defined in profiles. So any argument can be choosen. ie: a profile can define criteria for tests with or without saving statistics (-s) or simulate jvm (-j). A profile comes as a single file so it is easy to copy from a test machine to another. With this patch, profiles can be used either for test global run (./run.sh) or for an individual directory (./run_auto.sh).
