Or worse, if somebody adds rm -rf / or equivalent in a test script 
accidentally ;-).

This could be okay for now, let us try moving to a CR +1/+2 based gerrit 
triggers to run regression tests automatically. We can also consider 
integrating with zuul [1] for auto-merging patches based on some 
established criteria.

Nevertheless, kudos on this. This can substantially reduce our 
turnaround time for patch acceptance.
