Yes, these tests are trying to boot images under qemu. You can see the
output from boot process and it looks like it starts an interactive
dialog with the user (or attempts to) for setup. The key piece in the
various logs would appear to be:

Add INHERIT += "testimage" to local.conf and then

"bitbake core-image-sato -c testimage"

You'll need a tun/tap device setup so that "runqemu <machine>
<imagename>"works.
