"""Run tests.

This will find all modules whose name match a given prefix in the test
directory, and run them. Various command line options provide
additional facilities.

Command line options:

 -v  verbose -- run tests in verbose mode with output to stdout
 -q  quiet   -- don't print anything except if a test fails
 -t  testdir -- directory where the tests will be found
 -x  exclude -- add a test to exclude
 -p  profile -- profiled execution
 -c  capture -- capture standard out/err during tests
 -d  dbc     -- enable design-by-contract
 -m  match   -- only run test matching the tag pattern which follow

If no non-option arguments are present, prefixes used are 'test',
'regrtest', 'smoketest' and 'unittest'.
