Hi.
I filed bug 26259, "MediaWiki bloated with test suites": https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26259
RobLa asked me to send an e-mail to wikitech-l about this bug. It's my view that checking out MediaWiki from SVN should not include files that most users do not need or want. These test suites seem to fit perfectly within this category.
Do you mean you don't want them in phase3? Subversion is really the only place for such files, but we have in the past moved large files out of phase3 to reduce the size of core checkouts, specifically /trunk/artwork.
