Some thoughts from a quick skimming of the wiki page and the test cases:
- the volume control applet is now launched with 'gnome-control-center
sound', and not 'gnome-volume-control'.
- the desktop menus test case needs to be updated for GNOME Shell (you
probably already know that)

As for new test cases, I think it'd be nice to bulletproof some of the
more stable shell/control-center user interfaces at this stage...here's
a brief list of ideas:
- bluetooth: try connecting to a device and sending/receiving files from
it, using the system indicator provided by GNOME Shell
- background: try changing desktop background from the control center
widget, possibly covering all the fill options
- date and time: try changing date/clock time and timezone, and make
sure the shell picks up the changes correctly
- display: verify that dual monitor configurations work correctly with
the shell and the options provided by the control-center Display widget
work fine
- chat: make sure the shell-provided "inline" chat notifications work as
expected

Regards,

Cosimo
