Generally I agree with automated testing platforms, I think <insert
you're preferred platform here> makes sense, there's a bunch like
Linaro and a bunch in the arm ecosystem use LAVA [1] and  there's a
bunch more that I'm aware of.

Does it make sense, of course at some point in the future post this
being merged, make sense to look at a general way of making it easier
to plugin these sort of HW test platforms using this as a basis? I ask
mostly because putting a bunch of my devices into some sort of
platform can auto test things and of course everyone has an opinion to
which is the best one :-P
