Great post and handy to have these documented and readily available.
I am always on the lookout for test videos.
What may help is adding videos of different containers, FPS speeds and durations, these maybe also needed for testing if the test case is very video specific.
Example webm, mov files, videos at 25 fps, 21 fps, 5sec, 1 min, 10 min videos.

Cheers.
