i suspect that you will like to run tests after installing a newer rev of a
snap from the candidate/stable channels. at the moment, i believe your
best option is to poll the store for a newer revision. once available,
update the device explicitly using snap refresh <snap-name> and than
run whatever tests you like. if its a snap that you published yourself, you
could run hooks on install automatically that can trigger whatever tests
you like.
moving forward, we will need to work on a better approach via
push-notifications (perhaps) that will tell a device about a new revision
and also allow
the capability to install it immediately, instead of waiting for the next
update-timer to kick in.
