[ale] Cool automated distro install tests

Guys,

I just saw:  http://openqa.opensuse.org/cgi-bin/currentresults

Looks sort of boring but if you drill into any of the movies you can
see an automated install.

As an example:
http://openqa.opensuse.org/opensuse/video/openSUSE-GNOME-LiveCD-i686-Build0900.ogv

boots last nights nightly Gnome LiveCD build, installs it into a VM
and then does some configuration tests and does end user tests like
running firefox.  It's only 2 1/2 minutes long.

I've never seen something like a full distro tested in this automated
of a fashion before.  Very cool.

fyi: Looks like its doing about 30 tests and they get categorized as
pass / unknown / fail.
