Right now work on AutoQA is, I believe, more focused around the Taskbot effort - http://tirfa.com/an-initial-idea-for-taskbot.html - than about implementing additional testing. The good news is that part of the point of the Taskbot re-design is to make it easier to add additional tests in future, so it's short term pain for long term gain.
