I installed testdrive 1.21-0ubuntu1~ppa3 on a machine with non-free virtualbox-3.1. Since I didn't have any of the VM programs in the dependency list [qemu-kvm | kvm (>= 1:84+dfsg-0ubuntu12.4) | virtualbox-ose (>= 3.0.8)], APT installed kvm and all it's required depencencies. In ~/.testdriverc I added 'VIRT = "virtualbox"', and tried to installed Ubuntu Desktop via testdrive. When the new virtual machine tried to boot, I got an error from VirtualBox about a corrupted DKMS module as a result of the kvm installation (sorry for not having the exact error message).

From the testdrive script it looks like the program will with virtualbox-ose 3.0 & 3.1, so it will probably work with the non-free version. Could 'virtualbox-3.0' and 'virtualbox-3.1' be added as dependencies to testdrive so that it won't try to install other VM software? Those are the exact package names from 'apt-cache search virtualbox'.
