Is it to test the kernel, or the dump/restore program? I have not bothered putting regression tests for e2fsprogs in xfstests, because if I'm developing e2fsprogs, it actually makes much more sense to put the regression tests in the e2fsprogs git tree. If this is because it's more convenient to put this in xfsprogs because it has fsstress, maybe we should adjust the groups that it is in so that it's not in auto or quick, but some other group? Or add it to some group like "userspace" so I can exclude it when I'm mostly interested in testing development kernels?
