       given as options in a list of key-value tuples. E.g. a test specified

+	  <c>true</c> (in the call to <c>ct:run_test/1</c> or by
+	  using the corresponding test specification term, see below). This will

+    <title>Test Specifications</title>
     
     <p>The most flexible way to specify what to test, is to use a so
       called test specification. A test specification is a sequence of
-      Erlang terms. The terms may be declared in a text file or passed
-      to the test server at runtime as a list
-      (see <c>run_testspec/1</c> in the manual page
-      for <c>ct</c>). There are two general types of terms:
-      configuration terms and test specification terms.</p>
+      Erlang terms. The terms are normally declared in a text file (see
+      <c><seealso marker="ct#run_test-1">ct:run_test/1</seealso></c>), but
+      may also be passed to Common Test on the form of a list (see
+      <c><seealso marker="ct#run_testspec-1">ct:run_testspec/1</seealso></c>).
+      There are two general types of terms: configuration terms and test
+      specification terms.</p>
     <p>With configuration terms it is possible to e.g. label the test
       run (similar to <c>ct_run -label</c>), evaluate arbitrary expressions
-      before starting a test, import configuration
-      data (similar to
-      <c>ct_run -config/-userconfig</c>), specify HTML log directories (similar
-      to
-      <c>ct_run -logdir</c>), give aliases to test nodes and test
-      directories (to make a specification easier to read and
-      maintain), enable code coverage analysis (see
-      the <seealso marker="cover_chapter#cover">Code Coverage
-      Analysis</seealso> chapter) and specify event_handler plugins
-      (see the <seealso marker="event_handler_chapter#event_handling">
-      Event Handling</seealso> chapter). There is also a term for
-      specifying include directories that should be passed on to the

-      to <c>ct_run -include</c>, see above).</p>

+      and terms be that the values are merged (e.g. configuration files,
+      include directories, verbosity levels, silent connections), and for
+      others that the start flags/options override the test specification

+    <p>The difference between the <c>config</c> terms above, is that with
+      <c>ConfigDir</c>, <c>ConfigBaseNames</c> is a list of base names,
+      i.e. without directory paths. <c>ConfigFiles</c> must be full names,
+      including paths. E.g, these two terms have the same meaning:</p>
     <pre>
-      {logdir, "/home/test/logs"}.
+      {config, ["/home/testuser/tests/config/nodeA.cfg",
+                "/home/testuser/tests/config/nodeB.cfg"]}.
+
+      {config, "/home/testuser/tests/config", ["nodeA.cfg","nodeB.cfg"]}.</pre>
+
+    <note><p>Any relative paths specified in the test specification, will be
+	relative to the directory which contains the test specification file, if
+	<c>ct_run -spec TestSpecFile ...</c> or
+	<c>ct:run:test([{spec,TestSpecFile},...])</c>
+	executes the test. The path will be relative to the top level log directory, if
+	<c>ct:run:testspec(TestSpec)</c> executes the test.</p></note>
       
-      {config, "/home/test/t1/cfg/config.cfg"}.
-      {config, "/home/test/t2/cfg/config.cfg"}.
-      {config, "/home/test/t3/cfg/config.cfg"}.
+    <p>The <c>define</c> term introduces a constant, which is used to
+      replace the name <c>Constant</c> with <c>Value</c>, wherever it's found in
+      the test specification. This replacement happens during an initial iteration
+      through the test specification. Constants may be used anywhere in the test
+      specification, e.g. in arbitrary lists and tuples, and even in strings
+      and inside the value part of other constant definitions! A constant can
+      also be part of a node name, but that is the only place where a constant
+      can be part of an atom.</p>
+    
+    <note><p>For the sake of readability, the name of the constant must always
+	begin with an upper case letter, or a <c>$</c>, <c>?</c>, or <c>_</c>.
+	This also means that it must always be single quoted (obviously, since
+	the constant name is actually an atom, not text).</p></note>
+
+    <p>The main benefit of constants is that they can be used to reduce the size
+      (and avoid repetition) of long strings, such as file paths. Compare these
+      terms:</p>
+
+    <pre>
+      %% 1a. no constant
+      {config, "/home/testuser/tests/config", ["nodeA.cfg","nodeB.cfg"]}.
+      {suites, "/home/testuser/tests/suites", all}.
       
-      {alias, t1, "/home/test/t1"}.
-      {alias, t2, "/home/test/t2"}.
-      {alias, t3, "/home/test/t3"}.
+      %% 1b. with constant
+      {define, 'TESTDIR', "/home/testuser/tests"}.
+      {config, "'TESTDIR'/config", ["nodeA.cfg","nodeB.cfg"]}.

+
+      %% 2a. no constants
+      {config, [testnode@host1, testnode@host2], "../config", ["nodeA.cfg","nodeB.cfg"]}.
+      {suites, [testnode@host1, testnode@host2], "../suites", [x_SUITE, y_SUITE]}.

+      %% 2b. with constants
+      {define, 'NODE', testnode}.
+      {define, 'NODES', ['NODE'@host1, 'NODE'@host2]}.
+      {config, 'NODES', "../config", ["nodeA.cfg","nodeB.cfg"]}.
+      {suites, 'NODES', "../suites", [x_SUITE, y_SUITE]}.</pre>
+
+    <p>Constants make the test specification term <c>alias</c>, in previous
+      versions of Common Test, redundant. This term has been deprecated but will
+      remain supported in upcoming Common Test releases. Replacing <c>alias</c>
+      terms with <c>define</c> is strongly recommended though! Here's an example
+      of such a replacement:</p>
+
+    <pre>
+      %% using the old alias term
+      {config, "/home/testuser/tests/config/nodeA.cfg"}.
+      {alias, suite_dir, "/home/testuser/tests/suites"}.
+      {groups, suite_dir, x_SUITE, group1}.
+
+      %% replacing with constants
+      {define, 'TestDir', "/home/testuser/tests"}.
+      {define, 'CfgDir', "'TestDir'/config"}.
+      {define, 'SuiteDir', "'TestDir'/suites"}.
+      {config, 'CfgDir', "nodeA.cfg"}.
+      {groups, 'SuiteDir', x_SUITE, group1}.</pre>
+
+    <p>Actually, constants could well replace the <c>node</c> term too, but
+      this still has declarative value, mainly when used in combination
+      with <c>NodeRefs == all_nodes</c> (see types above).</p>
+
+    <p>Here follows a simple test specification example:</p>
+    <pre>
+      {define, 'Top', "/home/test"}.
+      {define, 'T1', "'Top'/t1"}.

+    <title>Logging - categories and verbosity levels</title>
+    <p>Common Test provides three main functions for printing strings:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item><c>ct:log(Category, Importance, Format, Args)</c></item>
+      <item><c>ct:print(Category, Importance, Format, Args)</c></item>
+      <item><c>ct:pal(Category, Importance, Format, Args)</c></item>
+    </list>
+    <p>The <c>log/1/2/3/4</c> function will print a string to the test case
+    log file. The <c>print/1/2/3/4</c> function will print the string to screen,
+    and the <c>pal/1/2/3/4</c> function will print the same string both to file and
+    screen. (The functions are documented in the <c>ct</c> reference manual).</p>
+
+    <p>The optional <c>Category</c> argument may be used to categorize the
+    log printout, and categories can be used for two things:</p>
+    <list>
+      <item>To compare the importance of the printout to a specific
+      verbosity level, and</item>
+      <item>to format the printout according to a user specific HTML
+      Style Sheet (CSS).</item>
+    </list>
+
+    <p>The <c>Importance</c> argument specifies a level of importance
+    which, compared to a verbosity level (general and/or set per category),
+    determines if the printout should be visible or not. <c>Importance</c>
+    is an arbitrary integer in the range 0..99. Pre-defined constants
+    exist in the <c>ct.hrl</c> header file. The default importance level,
+    <c>?STD_IMPORTANCE</c> (used if the <c>Importance</c> argument is not
+    provided), is 50. This is also the importance used for standard IO, e.g.
+    from printouts made with <c>io:format/2</c>, <c>io:put_chars/1</c>, etc.</p>
+
+    <p><c>Importance</c> is compared to a verbosity level set by means of the
+    <c>verbosity</c> start flag/option. The verbosity level can be set per
+    category and/or generally. The default verbosity level, <c>?STD_VERBOSITY</c>,
+    is 50, i.e. all standard IO gets printed. If a lower verbosity level is set,
+    standard IO printouts will be ignored. Common Test performs the following test:</p>
+    <pre>Importance >= (100-VerbosityLevel)</pre>
+    <p>This also means that verbosity level 0 effectively turns all logging off
+    (with the exception of printouts made by Common Test itself).</p>
+
+    <p>The general verbosity level is not associated with any particular
+    category. This level sets the threshold for the standard IO printouts,
+    uncategorized <c>ct:log/print/pal</c> printouts, as well as
+    printouts for categories with undefined verbosity level.</p>
+
+    <p>Example:</p>
+    <pre>
+
+      Some printouts during test case execution:
+
+        io:format("1. Standard IO, importance = ~w~n", [?STD_IMPORTANCE]),
+        ct:log("2. Uncategorized, importance = ~w", [?STD_IMPORTANCE]),
+        ct:log(info, "3. Categorized info, importance = ~w", [?STD_IMPORTANCE]]),
+        ct:log(info, ?LOW_IMPORTANCE, "4. Categorized info, importance = ~w", [?LOW_IMPORTANCE]),
+        ct:log(error, "5. Categorized error, importance = ~w", [?HI_IMPORTANCE]),
+        ct:log(error, ?HI_IMPORTANCE, "6. Categorized error, importance = ~w", [?MAX_IMPORTANCE]),
+
+      If starting the test without specifying any verbosity levels:
+
+        $ ct_run ...
+
+      the following gets printed:
+      
+        1. Standard IO, importance = 50
+        2. Uncategorized, importance = 50
+        3. Categorized info, importance = 50
+        5. Categorized error, importance = 75
+        6. Categorized error, importance = 99
+
+      If starting the test with:
+        
+        $ ct_run -verbosity 1 and info 75
+      
+      the following gets printed:
+
+        3. Categorized info, importance = 50
+	4. Categorized info, importance = 25
+        6. Categorized error, importance = 99
+    </pre>
+
+    <p>How categories can be mapped to CSS tags is documented in the
