These are the test cases I can find in Testopia: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_list_cases.cgi?searchstr=hob¤t_t ab=case&summary_type=anywordssubstr&summary=hob&field-1-0-0=summary&type-1- 0-0=anywordssubstr&value-1-0-0=hob Hopefully someone from QA can provide more details on how to run them. If you want any input on how to present the new options in the UI, let me know. I'll be happy to help.
