I suppose if you linked your test program statically,
you might be able to test it with the simulator,
assuming you wrote hooks for all the Linux system
calls.  Sounds like more work than it's worth to me.
I haven't done anything like that, so I wouldn't know.

I'd suggest having two build scripts for your tools:
one that targets your platform, and one that targets
a very similar already-existing platform.
That way you can validate the common bits against similar
real hardware, at least.
