Comment:

 In [changeset:"37654"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="37654"
 Tests: Disable `foreign_key_checks` while dropping existing tables.

 To ensure a clean run, the test suite drops all tables before installing,
 by simply looping over the table list and dropping them if they exist.
 This works well for Core, but may fail when a plugin has created a table
 with foreign key constraints in a previous test run.

 Many plugins choose to base their test suite on the Core setup, so making
 life easier for them is a plus, even if Core doesn't directly need this
 change.

 Props javorszky.

 Fixes #37046.
