Alternatively, what about renaming the "acceptance" tests to "validation"
instead? That word does not have a duplicated definition in the context of
QEMU yet, so I think it would be less confusing.
While at the beginning of your reply, I started thinking if
"validation" would cause less confusion for the QEMU project. Although
validation testing is a broader concept inside the Verification &
Validation process, encompassing unit testing, functional testing,
integration testing, system testing, and acceptance testing, it may be
an option for the QEMU project.
While system testing would be the correct terminology to use, if it
causes more confusion, using a less strict terminology, like
validation testing, is valid, in my opinion.
