For Ubuntu, with the help of Dan, tests have been fixed and redeployed 
for Wily. Unfortunately, due to some infrastructure changes, they 
stopped running for Xenial and must be redeployed again on new machines. 
It's planned before Beta 1 for Ubuntu.

Regarding running these tests for flavours, I'm sure Max will be glad to 
help if you're encountering specific issues with their deployment.
Once these tests pass on a local machine, it's relatively 
straightforward to deploy them on a remote machine and run them 
automatically.

JB.
