Description: 

Cron is no longer run as part of installing Drupal. Installs that enable the automated_cron module will have cron run when they visit the frontpage.

If tests rely on cron being run then the test must run cron itself.

Impacts: 
Site builders, administrators, editors
Module developers
Themers
Site templates, recipes and distribution developers
