What about the use case where you just want to run the U-Boot CI tests?

I found this problem just following the documentation at https://docs.u-boot.org/en/latest/develop/py_testing.html.

$ cd /path/to/u-boot
$ python3 -m venv venv
$ . ./venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r test/py/requirements.txt
$ make mrproper
$ ./test/py/test.py --bd sandbox --build
