Hi Zhangbo, Indeed the tests on the qemu-backend are not intended to be run on XEN, but with either pure qemu (tcg) or qemu + KVM.
That's actually an interesting point: how hard would it be to tweak the qemu backend to make its test usable on XEN? Anyway, if you're not willing to spend a reasonable amount of time and energy, you should focus on the libvirt backend to test XEN.
