Would it be wise to have DEP-8 tests that rely on real hardware being
available? If it's fine then we could take that approach and I can write
some tests in phablet-tools itself. But still, at least some of the issues
we found were not caused by changes in phablet-tools, but for example by
changes in adb, so I would primarily like to have a job running such tests
on the image we produce. If this still isn't clear we could have a quick
hangout to sort out the details.
