We do ability to test OOM handling on any of our current test
cases, via the --enable-test-oom configure option, and then
setting VIR_TEST_OOM=1 when running a test. I don't run it
automatically though, since it kills performance of my personal
server doing the nightly builds. Basically any time we add more
unit test cases, we should automatically improve OOM testing
coverage.
