DESCRIPTION

       autopilot is a tool for writing functional test  suites  for  graphical  applications  for
       Ubuntu.

OPTIONS

       positional arguments:
         {run,list,vis,launch}
                               Run modes
           run                 Run autopilot tests
           list                List autopilot tests
           vis                 Open the Autopilot visualiser tool
           launch              Launch an application with introspection enabled

       optional arguments:
         -h, --help            show this help message and exit
         -v, --version         Display autopilot version and exit.

       General Options

                 -h, --help
                        Get  help  from  autopilot.  This  command  can  also be present after  a
                        sub-command (such as run or list) to get help on the specific com‐  mand.
                        Further options are restricted to particular autopilot com‐ mands.

                 -v, --version
                        Display autopilot version and exit.
                 —  enable-profile  Enable  collection  of  profile data for autopilot itself. If
                 enabled, profile data will be stored in 'autopilot_<pid>.profile' in the current
                 working directory.

              list [options] suite [suite...]
                     List the autopilot tests found in the given test suite.

                     suite  See SPECIFYING SUITES

                     -ro, --run-order
                            List  tests  in  the order they will be run in, rather than alphabet‐
                            ically (which is the default).

                     --suites
                            Lists only available suites, not tests contained within the suite.

              run [options] suite [suite...]
                     Run one or more test suites.

                     suite  See SPECIFYING SUITES

                     -o FILE, --output FILE
                            Specify where the test log should be written.  Defaults  to   stdout.
                            If   a  directory  is specified the file will be created with a file‐
                            name of <hostname>_<dd.mm.yyy_HHMMSS>.log

                     -f FORMAT, --format FORMAT
                            Specify the format for the log. Valid options are  'xml'  and  'text'
                            'subunit' for JUnit XML, plain text, and subunit, respectively.

                     -ff, --failfast
                            Stop the test run on the first error or failure.

                     -r, --record
                            Record  failed  tests.  Using this option requires the 'recordmydesk‐
                            top' application be installed. By default, videos   are   stored   in
                            /tmp/autopilot

                     --record-options
                            Comma separated list of options to pass to recordmydesktop

                     -rd DIR, --record-directory DIR
                            Directory where videos should be stored (overrides the default set by
                            the -r option).

                     -ro, --random-order
                            Run the tests in random order

                     -v, --verbose
                            Causes autopilot to print the test log to stdout while  the  test  is
                            running.

                     --debug-profile
                            Select  a profile for what additional debugging information should be
                            attached to failed test results.

                     --timeout-profile
                            Alter the timeout values Autopilot uses. Selecting 'long'  will  make
                            autopilot  use longer timeouts for various polling loops. This can be
                            useful if autopilot is running on very slow hardware

              launch [options] application
                     Launch an application with introspection enabled.

                     -v, --verbose
                            Show autopilot log messages. Set twice to also log  data  useful  for
                            debugging autopilot itself.

                     -i INTERFACE, --interface INTERFACE
                            Specify  which  introspection interace to load.  The default ('Auto')
                            uses ldd to try and detect which interface to load.  Options are  Gtk
                            and Qt.

              vis [options]
                     Open the autopilot visualizer tool.

                     -v, --verbose
                            Show  autopilot  log  messages. Set twice to also log data useful for
                            debugging autopilot itself.

                     -testability
                            Start the vis tool in testability mode. Used for self-tests only.

SPECIFYING SUITES

          Suites are listed as a python dotted package name. Autopilot will do a recursive import
          in order to find all tests within a python package.
