Here's a simple tool that tests JPEG encoding. There are two branches,
with request API and without request API:

https://gitlab.collabora.com/ezequiel/v4l-jpeg

Usage is fairly simple, there's a test.sh that runs three tests,
writing three JPEG images.

You can also use v4l2jpegenc gstreamer element,
but it's slightly more involved to set up.

Hope it helps,
