NAME
       runtest - DejaGnu test driver

SYNOPSIS
       runtest [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       DejaGnu	is  a framework	for testing programs using Expect.  runtest is
       the driver program for DejaGnu.	It controls what tests to run and  how
       to run them.

OPTIONS
       --all, -a
	      Output all test results. By default, only	unexpected results are
	      displayed.

       --build TRIPLET
	      The configuration	TRIPLET	for the	build system.

       --debug
	      Turn  on	Expect internal	debugging output. The output is	logged
	      to a file	called dbg.log.

       --directory DIRECTORY
	      Run only tests in	the specified DIRECTORY.

       --global_init NAME
	      The NAME to use for the global init file in libdir.  The default
	      is site.exp if this option is not	given.

       --help Prints a usage message and then exits.

       --host TRIPLET
	      The configuration	TRIPLET	for the	host system.

       --host_board NAME
	      The host board definition	to use.

       --ignore	test1.exp test2.exp ...
	      Do not run the specified tests.

       --local_init NAME
	      The NAME to use for the testsuite	local init file	 in  both  the
	      current  directory  and objdir.  The default is site.exp if this
	      option is	not given.

       --log_dialog
	      Emit Expect output to standard output.

       --mail 'name1 name2 ...'
	      Electronic mail addresses	to receive test	results.

       --objdir	PATH
	      PATH is a	directory containing compiled test code.

       --outdir	DIRECTORY
	      The name of a DIRECTORY for test log output.

       --reboot
	      Reboot the target	board when runtest initializes (if supported).

       --srcdir	PATH
	      PATH is a	directory containing test directories.

       --strace	N
	      Turns on Expect internal tracing to N levels deep. The output is
	      logged to	a file called dbg.log.

       --target	TRIPLET
	      The configuration	TRIPLET	for the	target.

       --target_board NAME
	      A	list of	target board NAMEs to run tests	on.

       --tool TOOLNAME
	      Specify the tool to be tested.  TOOLNAME controls	the test suite
	      applied, and the associated initialization module.

       --tool_exec PATH
	      Specify the PATH to the executable to test.

       --tool_opts OPTIONS
	      Additional OPTIONS to pass to the	tool.

       -v, --verbose
	      Turns on more debugging output from test cases and DejaGnu util-
	      ity code.	 Use more than once to increase	output further.

       -V, --version
	      Prints out the versions of DejaGnu, Expect and Tcl.

       -x, --xml
	      Generate XML output.  The	output file is named  after  the  tool
	      with an .xml extension.

       -D[number]
	      Activate	the  Tcl debugger.  number can be either 1 or 0. If it
	      is 1, then the Expect shell will break when it  starts  to  run.
	      The  interrupt  key  will	 cause DejaGnu to drop to the debugger
	      prompt. If it is 0, DejaGnu starts as usual, but Control-C drops
	      to the debugger prompt.

       Any file	name on	the command line is assumed to be a subset of the
       test names to run.  Usually these are the names	of  the	 test  scripts
       (eg. foo.exp).

       Makefile-style  variables  are  used  to	 specify  tool names and their
       flags; these and	other configuration dependent values are saved in  the
       file site.exp, created during configuration.

   Exit	status:
       0      if  all tests passed including expected failures and unsupported
	      tests,

       1      if any test failed, passed unexpectedly, or was unresolved,

       2      if Expect	encountered any	error in the test scripts.
