% t/TEST -head /server-info

HEAD (no url defaults to /)
% t/TEST -head

GET url with authentication credentials
% t/TEST -get /server-info -username dougm -password foo

POST url (read content from string)
% t/TEST -post /TestApache::post -content 'name=dougm&company=covalent'

POST url (read content from stdin)
% t/TEST -post /TestApache::post -content - < foo.txt

POST url (generate a body of data 1024 bytes in length)
% t/TEST -post /TestApache::post -content x1024

POST url (only print headers, e.g. useful to just check Content-length)
% t/TEST -post -head /TestApache::post -content x100000

GET url (only print headers, e.g. useful to just check Content-length)

start server under gdb
% t/TEST -debug

start server under strace (outputs to t/logs/strace.log)
% t/TEST -d strace

run .t test under the perl debugger
% t/TEST -d perl t/modules/access.t

run .t test under the perl debugger (nonstop mode, output to t/logs/perldb.out)
% t/TEST -d perl=nostop t/modules/access.t

control how much noise Apache::Test should produce. to print all the
debug messages: 
% t/TEST -trace=debug
to print only warnings and higher trace levels:
% t/TEST -trace=warning
the available modes are:
  emerg alert crit error warning notice info debug

turn on -v and LWP trace (1 is the default) mode in Apache::TestRequest
% t/TEST -d lwp t/modules/access.t

turn on -v and LWP trace mode (level 2) in Apache::TestRequest
% t/TEST -d lwp=2 t/modules/access.t

run all tests 10 times in a random order (the seed is autogenerated
and reported) 
% t/SMOKE -times=10 -order=random

run all tests 10 times in a random order using the seed obtained from
the previous random run (e.g. 2352211):
% t/SMOKE -times=10 -order=2352211

repeat all tests 10 times (a, b, c, a, b, c)
% t/SMOKE -times=10 -order=repeat

When certain tests fail when running with -times option, you want to
find out the minimal sequence of tests that lead to the
failure. Apache::TestSmoke helps to ease this task, simply run:
% t/SMOKE

which tries various sequences of tests and at the end reports the
shortest sequences found that lead to the same failure.

for more options do:
% t/SMOKE -help
