tests/run-tests.py: Change --target/--device options to --test-instance.
Previously to this commit, running the test suite on a bare-metal board required specifying the target (really platform) and device, eg: $ ./run-tests.py --target pyboard --device /dev/ttyACM1 That's quite a lot to type, and you also need to know what the target platform is, when a lot of the time you either don't care or it doesn't matter. This commit makes it easier to run the tests by replacing both of these options with a single `--test-instance` (`-t` for short) option. That option specifies the executable/port/device to test. Then the target platform is automatically detected. The `--test-instance` can be passed: - "unix" (the default) to use the unix version of MicroPython - "webassembly" to test the webassembly port - anything else is considered a port/device to pass to Pyboard There are also some shortcuts to specify a port/device, following `mpremote`: - a<n> is short for /dev/ttyACM<n> - u<n> is short for /dev/ttyUSB<n> - c<n> is short for COM<n> For example: $ ./run-tests.py -t a1 Note that the default test instance is "unix" and so this commit does not change the standard way to run tests on the unix port, by just doing `./run-tests.py`. As part of this change, the platform (and it's native architecture if it supports importing native .mpy files) is show at the start of the test run.
