What I've done for xfstests is to make it so easy that even a
University Professor (or Graduate Student) can run it. That's why I
created the {kvm,gce}-xfstests test appliance:
https://github.com/tytso/xfstests-bld/blob/master/Documentation/kvm-quickstart.md
I've been trying to integrate blktests into the test appliance, to try
to make it really easy to run.

There were a few cases a missing config caused test failures; most of
the time, it simply causes tests to get skipped. But figuring out how
to enable the nvme or srp tests required turning on a *large* number
of modules. Figuring that out was painful, and required multipel tries.
One of the things that I've done is create kernel defconfigs to make
it really easy for somone to build a kernel for testing purposes. The
defconfigs for suitable for running xfstests under KVM or GCE can be
found here:
https://github.com/tytso/xfstests-bld/blob/master/kernel-configs/x86_64-config-4.14
I've attached the defconfig I've been developing suitable for xfstests
and blktests below. I try to create minimal defconfigs so I can more
quickly build kernels, especially if I am needing to do bisection
search.

That's definitely not true for the nvme tests; the nvme-cli from
Debian stable is *not* sufficient. This is why I've started building
nvme-cli as part of the test appliance in xfstests-bld. I'm now
somewhat suspicious that there are problems because using the latest
HEAD of the nvme-cli git tree may have had messages printed to
standard out that is subtly different from the version of nvme-cli
that was used to develop some of the nvme tests.

I have been graduately reporting them to linux-block@. Here are the
full set of test failures I've been working through.
My goal is that eventually, someone will be able to run "gce-xfstests
--blktests" in their kernel development tree, and in less than 45
minutes, they would get an e-mail that would look like the following,
except there wouldn't be any failures reported. :-)
