if you look into your ipt.properties file you can modify the following  
settings:

dataDir=${ipt.datadir}
registryUrl=${ipt.registry.url}

the dataDir should be an absolute path pointing to your data dir  
(defaults to the ipt webapp data subfolder).
the registry URL can point to a development registry - unfortunately  
the extensions and vocabs currently dont use this setting, only the  
UDDI style registration of resources and organisations. We will make  
sure that the IPT uses this setting also for the extension  
registration, so you can easily point it to an alternative extension  
site for testing.
