That's essentially what this is doing - its a custom guest OS rather
than a common distro IIUC

Well avocado is as reliable as the tests you write for it. The problems
are largely around the images being used in avocado. If the biosbits
testing system is reliable, then avocado will be too, and if they not
reliable, then it will affect qtest too.
