Well, first I would work very hard to be able to use the EXACT same ear in
both testing and production. You want to test the very same thing that you
put in production, IMO.
Instead of using profiles, I would have two different projects - one
producing the ear for testing and the other producing the one for
production. By doing so you can produce both ears in one build. Possibly you
could just have one project and produce the ear for production as the
primary artifact and then the one for testing with a classifier. Having two
different projects is probably easier.

Hi Anders
We need one and the same ear to contain additional jars in testing,
while for release we want to only include the core jars. This is the
rationale in trying to use a profile. If you can advise us on how to
achieve our goal through different means, we'd highly appreciate.
Cheers, Paul.

I believe that the behavior you see is correct. Maybe not what you want
though...:-)
If you explain why you sometimes would like to add more jars wee could
suggest a different solution.

I have the same problem and I'd like to explain it.
I want to have an ability to add some web-modules to my ear in some profile.
And I don't want to redefine other modules, only my module. If I only add
dependency on my module in profile, it's context root will be equal to war
name, but I want to set it manually.

A configuration item that is a list can't be merged in a profile. See the
"modules" element as a configuration item, like the JavaEE version you want
to use. If you override the value in the profile, you can't expect it to
merge the elements that are set in the main build (this is a global behavior
of Maven btw).
Why don't you add a dependency section in your profile instead? Why
quartz.jar should be added to the application context? Maybe you need to use
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-ear-plugin/generate-application-xml-mojo.html#includeLibInApplicationXmlinstead.
