We will be able to update the two week atomic related tests regularly. As the technology gets regular updates (read super new changes), updating the tests will also be required to keep up with the upstream. It is being consumed for automated two week atomic releases. > 2) What are the downsides of doing this? Someone may write wrong test case which somehow no one noticed, this may create false failures, but this is a standard problem in any testing I guess. > 3) If the downsides happen what is the plan on backing out whatever broke?

This is formally being used only for two week atomic, for standard Fedora releases, we still verify the images manually with the official QA tests. Autocloud in the other hand does a lot extra tests for two week atomic releases.
