Launching and managing runs
  -runall                 : run all tests that are not state COMPLETED and status PASS, 
                            CHECK or KILLED
  -runtests tst1,tst2 ... : run tests
  -remove-runs            : remove the data for a run, requires :runname, -testpatt and
                            -itempatt be set. Optionally use :state and :status
  -set-state-status X,Y   : set state to X and status to Y, requires controls per -remove-runs
  -rerun FAIL,WARN...     : force re-run for tests with specificed status(s)
  -rollup                 : fill run (set by :runname)  with latest test(s) from
                            prior runs with same keys
  -lock                   : lock run specified by target and runname
  -unlock                 : unlock run specified by target and runname

Selectors (e.g. use for -runtests, -remove-runs, -set-state-status, -list-runs etc.)
  -target key1/key2/...   : run for key1, key2, etc.
  -reqtarg key1/key2/...  : run for key1, key2, etc. but key1/key2 must be in runconfig
  -testpatt patt          : % is wildcard
  -itempatt patt          : % is wildcard
  :runname                : required, name for this particular test run
  :state                  : Applies to runs, tests or steps depending on context
  :status                 : Applies to runs, tests or steps depending on context

Test helpers (for use inside tests)
  -step stepname
  -test-status            : set the state and status of a test (use :state and :status)
  -setlog logfname        : set the path/filename to the final log relative to the test
                            directory. may be used with -test-status
  -set-toplog logfname    : set the overall log for a suite of sub-tests
  -summarize-items        : for an itemized test create a summary html 
  -m comment              : insert a comment for this test

Test data capture
  -set-values             : update or set values in the testdata table
  :category               : set the category field (optional)
  :variable               : set the variable name (optional)
  :value                  : value measured (required)
  :expected               : value expected (required)
  :tol                    : |value-expect| <= tol (required, can be <, >, >=, <= or number)
  :units                  : name of the units for value, expected_value etc. (optional)
  -load-test-data         : read test specific data for storage in the test_data table
                            from standard in. Each line is comma delimited with four
                            fields category,variable,value,comment

Queries
  -list-runs patt         : list runs matching pattern \"patt\", % is the wildcard
  -showkeys               : show the keys used in this megatest setup
  -test-files targpatt     : get the most recent test path/file matching targpatt e.g. %/%... 
                            returns list sorted by age ascending, see examples below
  -test-paths             : get the test paths matching target, runname, item and test
                            patterns.

Misc 
  -rebuild-db             : bring the database schema up to date
  -update-meta            : update the tests metadata for all tests
  -env2file fname         : write the environment to fname.csh and fname.sh
  -setvars VAR1=val1,VAR2=val2 : Add environment variables to a run NB// these are
                                 overwritten by values set in config files.
  -server -|hostname      : start the server (reduces contention on megatest.db), use
                            - to automatically figure out hostname
  -repl                   : start a repl (useful for extending megatest)

Spreadsheet generation
  -extract-ods fname.ods  : extract an open document spreadsheet from the database
  -pathmod path           : insert path, i.e. path/runame/itempath/logfile.html
                            will clear the field if no rundir/testname/itempath/logfile
                            if it contains forward slashes the path will be converted
                            to windows style
Getting started
  -gen-megatest-area      : create a skeleton megatest area. You will be prompted for paths
  -gen-megatest-test      : create a skeleton megatest test. You will be prompted for info

Examples

# Get test path, use '.' to get a single path or a specific path/file pattern
megatest -test-files 'logs/*.log' -target ubuntu/n%/no% :runname w49% -testpatt test_mt%
