Seeking some help with IDEA 11 + scalatest (and more generally, configuring IDEA to work with with Scala-related tools)

delete the old version from your hard drive :)
idea should no longer compile, and something in your settings should be
highlighted in red.
also, there should be a console where you can see the complete classpath

In IDEA 11, I can run my scalatest test directly from IDEA, rather than needing to do it through the sbt console plugin. This is nice because the output from the IDEA tests have hyperlinks to the line the error occurred, while the tests run from the plugin do not. The hyperlinks could be a big timesaver.
However, when IDEA runs the tests directly, I get a stack trace in the output window, which does not happen when I run the tests from the plugin. My best guess is that somehow, IDEA is running quite an old version of scalatest, when the stack trace was the default. I've looked through all of the Project Structure dialog windows, but haven't found anything that seems related to this problem. But then, I don't have much experience in configuring IDEA at that level, as previous versions of IDEA seemed problematic with Scala when doing builds, tests, etc--I always used sbt from the plugin instead.
So I have the specific question above, and in addition, would welcome comments on other aspects of configuring IDEA to work optimally with Scala, especially tricky or nonobvious aspects.
