There was also missing parted and hostname command.

However, the nfit.ko is detected as production even when I remove all
the production modules just in case. lsmod confirms that the nvdimm
modules are not loaded before the test.

Maybe something goes wrong with the test module build?

It is very fragile and requires complete kernel source for each
configuration built. See below for the package

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:michals/nfit_test

Attaching the log of test run which does not report any missing tools,
only complains about nfit.ko being production.

Thanks
