We're thinking along similar lines but in pseudo-code I was thinking
something more like:

SDKCLASSNAME ??= "default"

python do_testsdk() {
     sdkclass = d.getVar("SDKCLASSNAME")
     from oeqa.sdk.testsdkmingw import sdkclass
     t = sdkclass(d)
     t.run()
}
 

as there should be some way to structure this so we don't need so many
bbclass files...

Cheers,
