--v: verbose    -- run tests in verbose mode with output to stdout
--w: verbose2   -- re-run failed tests in verbose mode
--W: verbose3   -- re-run failed tests in verbose mode immediately
--q: quiet      -- don't print anything except if a test fails
--x: exclude    -- arguments are tests to *exclude*
--s: single     -- run only a single test (see below)
--S: slow       -- print the slowest 10 tests
--r: random     -- randomize test execution order
--f: fromfile   -- read names of tests to run from a file (see below)
--l: findleaks  -- if GC is available detect tests that leak memory
--u: use        -- specify which special resource intensive tests to run

--t: threshold  -- call gc.set_threshold(N)
--T: coverage   -- turn on code coverage using the trace module
--D: coverdir   -- Directory where coverage files are put
--N: nocoverdir -- Put coverage files alongside modules
--L: runleaks   -- run the leaks(1) command just before exit
--R: huntrleaks -- search for reference leaks (needs debug build, v. slow)

 If non-option arguments are present, they are names for tests to run,
 unless -x is given, in which case they are names for tests not to run.
