Apart what yust sayed, no.

If the 'testbed' are to little and phisically near you, normally i
modify the package but not the revision of, then i:

1) test the upgrade editing C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WPKG.XML and
 subtracting 1 to the revision of that package, so an upgrade
are forced.

2) test install/remove by adding/removing package from the profile
 (this is a bit easy)

clearly using a 'scatch' profile.


Some time ago i've asked for a feature, eg like in modern package
management system, to 'pinpoint' a package with a specific revision to
a profile, eg:

<profile id="ced">
        <depends profile-id="default" />

        <package package-id="whfc" revision="124"/>
</profile>

I think this is a good solution for this problem.
