OK looks like you are not interested in test results that apply to a vintage version of nouveau. I understand that. I was able to burn and run October 09, 2017's image downloaded from here: https://nouveau.pmoreau.org/iso/nouveau-2017_10_09.iso

There are at least 3 options to choose from:
---
(1) Boot Arch Linux Nouveau (x86_64)
(2) Boot Arch Linux Latest (x86_64)
(3) Boot Arch Linux LTS (x86_64)
...
----
which one to run? NO IDEA! But let's choose (1). It boots to a command prompt:
---
root@archiso ~ #
---

How to run tests there? NO IDEA! But I was able to find this command:
---
piglit $ ./piglit-run.py -x glx -x streaming-texture-leak -x max-texture-size \
            -1 --dmesg tests/gpu.py \
            ~/piglit-results/nvXX-`date +%Y-%m-%d`-$USER
---
on this page https://people.freedesktop.org/~imirkin/

Too bad the distro doesn't have piglit-run.py but it has a Pythin script piglit in PATH, let's try running it:

---
root@archiso ~ # piglit
Traceback (most recent calls):
  File "/usr/bin/piglit", line 42 in <modules>
    import six
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'six'
1 root@archiso ~ #
---

=( :-[] =(

According to the front page: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/
"Testers wanted", how to run tests? NO IDEA!

So guys either state explicitly that testers are not needed OR provide adequate instructions to follow. I wanted to help, I am not able anymore since I have to return this hardware back to the owner.

OK I got access to the hardware, it's Toshiba Satellite L730. One of
the obvious problems is that there's no video in VLC nor in Dragon
Player. Is this expected?

Some output:

Generically, yes, the hardware is supported.

I will update the thread as soon as I get the hardware back. It was
something serious like artifacts or no video in X so that I had to resort to
proprietary drivers.
So the question is whether this hardware is supported or not.

What seems to be the problem? I think you forgot to include a
description of the issues you're seeing.
