A recurring issue with AGL releases has been instability or breakage with the window manager and home screen. This usually results in nothing being shown on screen when running the image.
We should plan and design integration with AGL CIAT/Fuego, so that we can as much as possible test that the new compositor is functional not just on reference platforms at release time, but continually through the development process.

Yeah, can be closed. We have some rudimentary screenshotting happening in CI for some time. Anything more than requires actually tests for the compositor functionality. We do get some of that from Edy's tests. The base is there, we can even run the compositor with the headless backend, we load the compositor as a shared library similar to weston, so in case we'd like to expand to run tests it wouldn't be such a big deal to make it happen.
