Yes. If you take a closer look at /usr/src you'll find various other
tests that aren't integrated into the kyua/atf tool chain (yet).

I also believe that your ~3,5k test results represent more
that ~3,5k individual tests due to suboptimal integration of
other test suites.

Various external test frameworks are also potentially relevant
for FreeBSD, but have too much dependencies to integrate.

As an example, a TCP/IP regression was found through Privoxy-Regression-Tes=
t:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D173309

Obviously the regression could have been found with a
FreeBSD-specific test as well, but somebody would have
to spent the time to write such a test first.

Some of these tests are probably also run on FreeBSD systems
to test the clang integration ...

Unlike LLVM, FreeBSD contains a lot of old code from a time
where automated testing was less common.

Comparing it with other operating systems might make more
sense.
