This is draft policy. http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html

   I've found many public domain images on the net which we could use
as a starting point for writing unit tests.  Is it sufficient for them
to be in the public domain?

Yes. What we need to do is to put the license text if any into the NOTICES file identifying the images by file name or directory name. I'm assuming that the images themselves don't "self identify" since they're in some binary format.

   See below.

Thanks,
   Charles.

   I have a suite of unit tests but they depend on my image library


   What's the policy for adding this kind of data to the repo?  Is it
sufficient for the image to be in the public domain, or do we need a
CLA (or some such) from each image source?

which I do not own the IP rights to. Many were given to me as part of bug reports. I'm going to start working on a new suite of unit tests.
