I'd expect new development to start being looked at around the time of the
release, yes.

If you search the commits, e.g.:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/log/?qt=grep&q=Rossi

you'll see he also worked on the gcc/binutils tests I mentioned.

Also, I'm not sure if you found them but these are run on our infrastructure
here:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/73/builds/3877/steps/19/logs/stdio
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/42/builds/3892/steps/20/logs/stdio

(one of the above uses user mode qemu iirc, the other uses system mode).

We then get reports like:

https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20210825-18/testresults/testresult-report.txt

Cheers,

Richard
