As of AutoQA 0.7.0, which should be deployed to production next week, all anaconda-related tests (anaconda_storage, anaconda_checkbot and compose_tree) support opt-in email subscription [1]. If you opt-in, you should get an email with results for every such test executed.

If you would like to subscribe some non-FAS account email, like a mailing list, we can hardcode that into the test (but tell me soon).

I believe we (our you) won't write GUI tests per se. Rather the underlying "engine"/library should be controllable so that we can simulate the installation by calling API instead of "clicking buttons".
