Android CTS (Compatibility Test Suite)

I know there is a project to port the CTS to x86.I want know why do we
must porting the CTS to x86?

I know this module can test software and hardware and check the app if
comply the google Compatibility Definition as well. Can you tell me
whether this Compatibility Definition is still suitable to x86
platform? Or, someone use another standard to implement this module on
-86 platform?

last question, can you tell me the porting status of froyo-x86 and
gingerbread-x86?

There is no official work being done on Android for x86, and nothing available around CTS.  I don't even really understand what it means to "port CTS to x86," since CTS currently only consists of tests for the Java-based APIs, it is not CPU architecture-specific.

We regularly run CTS on our x86 platforms. To be sure... there are
some bugs... but very little was IA specific. I believe that we
uploaded to Gerrit fixes for the IA specific bugs that we found (I
should double check that though). You should be able to run it just
fine on the mainline with the VirtualBox emulation.
