I like this in general, but some things to think about:
- Raw serial log is *hugely* important. Without it, some kernel bugs
will simply not be visible reliably.
And we'll keep grabbing them as today. It is just the case that:
1) They will not contain test output, so kernel bumps will sand out
2) If we capture them unreliably, such as today, then nothing breaks
- I'm starting to be convinced that we should have to depend on working
ethernet - this is already the case with android
This proposal does not depend on working ethernet on the test image
- Speaking of android... how does this affect testing on android? It
sounds as if it may be geared more towards ubuntu image testing
I need to check this but I suspect we can implement a imperative agent (shell, or even java if needed) that helps us run android early initialization. AFAIK most of the work is alredy performed via adb.
- If we require ethernet, what happens when we want to do an ethernet
enablement test (this should be coming soon) that wants to bring up/down ethernet interfaces and connect/disconnect them?
As above, we don't require ethernet on the test image. If the test starts messing with ethernet then we simply loose the real-time log streaming. In either case the log is preserved and is recovered after reboot from the master image.

I've registered another blueprint. This time on LAVA Dispatcher. The goal is similar as the previous blueprint about device manager, to gather feedback and to propose some small steps sub-blueprints that could be scheduled in 2012.04. The general goal is to improve the way we run tests by making them more reliable and more featureful (richer in state) at the same time.
