Amateur Boston spotters had a fun weekend watching the Cargolux liveried test aircraft completing approach tests. I am not sure about the specifics of the tests but each included rollouts almost to the end of Rwy 33L with thrust reversers open. All departures were within minutes of the arrival on the reverse runway (15R). The aeroplane arrived on Saturday evening and then completed 4 departures and 3 landings on Sunday morning.
Here are two sample videos of the activities:
