[Bug 1453509] Re: simplify command line by only allowing exactly one test argument

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 4.0+git1

---------------
autopkgtest (4.0+git1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Skip tests/autopkgtest NullRunner.test_apt_source_nonexisting test instead
    of failing if there are no deb-src apt sources configured on the host.

autopkgtest (4.0) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add new "autopkgtest" CLI. This provides a simplified CLI compared to the
    now deprecated adt-run:
    - It accepts only exactly one tested source package, and gives a proper
      error if none or more than one (often unintend) is given
    - It defaults to the current directory if that is a Debian source package
    - The order of arguments is not relevant any more
    - Built vs. unbuilt tree is now automatically detected
    - The explicit --source, --click-source etc. options are gone, the type of
      tested source/binary packages is detected automatically
    - The virtualization server is now separated with a double instead of a
      tripe dash, as the former is standard Unix syntax.
    - The virtualization server must be specified with its "short" name only,
      e. g. "ssh" instead of "adt-virt-ssh".
    The old "adt-run" CLI will still be available for some time.
    (Closes: #795274, LP: #1453509)
  * Rename adt-build* tools to autopkgtest-build* and build images prefixed
    with"autopkgtest" instead of "adt". Keep compatibility symlink for the old
    commands, and when being called through them, also produce images with the
    old adt* names.
  * Rename public ADT_* env vars to AUTOPKGTEST_*:
    - AUTOPKGTEST_APT_PROXY
    - AUTOPKGTEST_ARTIFACTS
    - AUTOPKGTEST_AUTOPILOT_MODULE
    - AUTOPKGTEST_NORMAL_USER
    - AUTOPKGTEST_REBOOT_MARK
    - AUTOPKGTEST_TMP
    As these are being used in existing tests and tools, also export/check
    those under their old ADT_* name.

Title:
  simplify command line by only allowing exactly one test argument

Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in autopkgtest package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  autopkgtest for a dkms module with autodep8.

  Content of local control file:
  '''
  Test-Command: /non-existent
  Restrictions: needs-root, allow-stderr
  Depends: dkms
  '''

  This command fails (as expected)
  adt-run -d --override-control=dkms/dkms.control asic0x --- qemu adt-vivid-amd64-cloud.img

  But this command passes:
  adt-run asic0x -d --override-control=dkms/dkms.control --- qemu adt-vivid-amd64-cloud.img

  In the second case, the test uses the control file generated by
  autodep8 instead of the control file provided on the command line.
