No, they've had no testing as far as I'm aware.  noMMU never got to the
stage when it was merged that it had any platforms before Hiyok went
silent.

The only real testing I'm aware of is when I recreated the OKI67001
support a while back and got my board to boot.

As for qemu, software emulations while nice and convenient don't
accurately reflect real hardware.
