+.SH NAME
+runtest \- the DejaGnu test driver program
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B runtest
+[ options ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I DejaGnu
+is a framework for running test suites on GNU tools. It is written in
+expect, which uses TCL (Tool command language).
+.B runtest
+is the test driver program; use it to control what tests to run,
+and variations on how to run them.
+
+You can find a comprehensive description of DejaGnu and \fBruntest\fR in
+.I
+The DejaGnu Testing Framework
+or its Info version,
+.BR dejagnu.info .
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B --all
+Print all test output to screen. By default, only unexpected results are
+displayed.
+.TP
+.BI --baud \ rate
+Set the baud rate for a serial line connection. Some serial interface
+programs (like \fBtip\fR) don't use this value but instead use a separate
+initialization file.
+.TP
+.BI --connect \ type
+The type of connection to use. The choices are
+.BR rlogin ,
+.BR telnet ,
+.BR rsh ,
+.BR kermit ,
+.BR tip
+and
+.BR mondfe .
+.TP
+.B --debug
+Turn on
+.B expect
+internal debugging output. All output is logged to
+a file called \fBdbg.out\fR.
+The output of the \fB--strace\fR also goes into this file.
+.TP
+.B --help
+Prints out a help screen and then exits.
+.TP
+.BI --host \ type
+The configuration string for the host.
+.TP
+.BI --ignore \ test1.exp\ test2.exp\ ...
+Do not run the specified tests.
+.TP
+.BI --mail \ \'name1\ name2\ ...\'
+Electronic mail addresses to receive test results.
+.TP
+.BI --name \ hostname
+The network hostname of the target board.
+.TP
+.BI --objdir \ path
+\fIpath\fR is a directory containing compiled test code.
+.TP
+.BI --outdir \ directory
+The name of a directory for test log output.
+.TP
+.B --reboot
+Reboot the target board when \fBruntest\fR initializes
+(if supported).
+.TP
+.BI --srcdir \ path
+\fIpath\fR is a directory containing test directories.
+.TP
+.BI --strace \ N
+Turns on
+.B expect
+internal tracing to \fIN\fR levels deep.
+.TP
+.BI --target \ type
+The configuration string for the target.
+.TP
+.BI --tool \ toolname
+Specify the tool to be tested. \fItoolname\fR controls the test suite
+applied, and the associated initialization module.
+.TP
+.B --verbose,\ -v
+Turns on more debugging output from test cases and DejaGnu utility code.
+Use more than once to increase output further.
+.TP
+.B --version,\ -V
+Prints out the versions of DejaGnu, expect and Tcl.
+.TP
+.B -D[number]
+Activate the Tcl debugger.\fBnumber\fR can be either 1 or 0. If it is
+1, then the expect shell will break when it starts to run. All ^C's
+drop DejaGnu back to the debugger prompt. A 0 starts DejaGnu like
+normal, but a ^C drops to the debugger prompt.
+.TP 0
+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
+expect test driver, ie... special.exp.
+
+Makefile style variables are used to specify tool names and their
+flags; these and other configuration dependent values are saved in the
+file \fBsite.exp\fR, created during configuration.
+.SH EXIT CODES
+.B runtest
+sets the exit code to 1 if any of the tests failed, or
+sets it to 0 if all the tests passed.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+.I The DejaGnu Testing Framework
+.RB ( dejagnu.info ).
+This is the DejaGnu manual; its source is the Texinfo file
+.B
+doc/dejagnu.texi
+in the DejaGnu distribution.
