Hi. We'll see some beta deployments this week. I have not tried doing any KVM testing. What I can currently offer you is vexpress x4 or x1 (both A7+A15) that you can run lava-test's on. If you want we can also add a simple "run this shell" action for experiments. Note: keep in mind that it's not "ready" yet, it's not the same dispatcher code you can use on physical boards and it has some different properties.
