Hmmm, the documentation on mercurials wiki seems to be out of date. http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BisectExtension?action=show

When you run the test through -c is that using a static script from the initial revision or does that test need to be in all the revisions, possibly altering the script if it was changed in a previous revision? I would think it uses a static script, in which case it would mean that you don't necessarily have to have the test in the 'good' revision but can create it after the fact.

In the example I provided, my test case is actually located inside of my repository. Thus each execution is indeed running the version of the test from the currently selected revision. In this case I like that, because the test itself might have broken and I'd like to detect that case.

If, however, you need a static test, you can just point to something outside of your repository and it should work the way you describe.
