I have some admittedly very hacky patches in my personal fork of xfstests on github, but they use a mix of userspace tools that are specific for other ntfs file system drivers, since last I checked, Paragon software has not made open source file system utilities for ntfs3 available. The support of ntfs3 in {kvm,gce}-xfstests was experimental in nature when I was trying to make an assessment about whether ntfs3 was ready for prime time. So don't mind applying these patches, but I'm currently no longer regularly running ntfs3 test runs, and I'm very much aware that the current ntfs3 support that I had added a while back into xfstests is definitely not polished or ready for the fstests maintainer to consider accepting.
