xm test code is still available in the xen code

But all the docs and mailing list reference to it are quite out of date:
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenTest
http://markmail.org/message/2jvnvim3hokwfaqy

There are live CDs available [1], but as far as automated testing goes
you may want to check on xen-devel, there are a couple of companies
that send in weekly reports

For example:
http://markmail.org/search/?q=vmx+status+report#query:vmx status
report+page:1+mid:hoqsjbr5x3l2i7pe+state:results

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Todd

VMKnoppix Xen LiveCD (other virtualization system support and lots of
other neat features)
http://www.rcis.aist.go.jp/project/knoppix/vmknoppix/index-en.html
The 3.03 version is still the latest released liveCD from Xen Source.
The VMKnoppix live CDs are a good alternative, with newer Xen packages
installed.
