## Perform tests from the first file in the loadpath matching @var{name}.
## @code{test} can be called as a command or as a function.  Called with
## a single argument @var{name}, the tests are run interactively and stop
## after the first error is encountered.
##
## With a second argument the tests which are performed and the amount of
## output is selected.
##
## @table @asis
## @item 'quiet'
##  Don't report all the tests as they happen, just the errors.
##
## @item 'normal'
## Report all tests as they happen, but don't do tests which require
## user interaction.
##
## @item 'verbose'
## Do tests which require user interaction.
## @end table
##
## The argument @var{fid} can be used to allow batch processing.  Errors
## can be written to the already open file defined by @var{fid}, and
## hopefully when Octave crashes this file will tell you what was happening
## when it did.  You can use @code{stdout} if you want to see the results as
## they happen.  You can also give a file name rather than an @var{fid}, in
## which case the contents of the file will be replaced with the log from
## the current test.
##
## Called with a single output argument @var{success}, @code{test} returns
## true if all of the tests were successful.  Called with two output arguments
## @var{n} and @var{max}, the number of successful tests and the total number
## of tests in the file @var{name} are returned.
##
## If the second argument is the string 'grabdemo', the contents of the demo
## blocks are extracted but not executed.  Code for all code blocks is
## concatenated and returned as @var{code} with @var{idx} being a vector of
## positions of the ends of the demo blocks.
##
## If the second argument is 'explain', then @var{name} is ignored and an
## explanation of the line markers used is written to the file @var{fid}.
## @seealso{assert, fail, error, demo, example}
## @end deftypefn

## FIXME: * Consider using keyword fail rather then error?  This allows us
## to make a functional form of error blocks, which means we
## can include them in test sections which means that we can use
## octave flow control for both kinds of tests.
