<p><c>Common Test</c> framework functions for starting and stopping nodes
for Large-Scale Testing.</p>
<p>This module exports functions used by the <c>Common Test</c>
Master to start and stop "slave" nodes. It is the default callback
module for the <c>{init, node_start}</c> term in the Test
Specification.</p>

<p>Starts an Erlang node with name <c>Node</c> on host <c>Host</c> as
specified by the combination of options in <c>Opts</c>.</p>
<p>Options <c>Username</c> and <c>Password</c> are used to log on to the
remote host <c>Host</c>. <c>Username</c>, if omitted, defaults to
the current username. <c>Password</c> is empty by default.</p>
<p>A list of functions specified in option <c>Startup</c> are
executed after startup of the node. Notice that all used modules
are to be present in the code path on <c>Host</c>.</p>
<p>The time-outs are applied as follows:</p>
<taglist>
<tag><c>BootTimeout</c></tag>
<item><p>The time to start the Erlang node, in seconds. Defaults to
3 seconds. If the node is not pingable within this time, the result
<c>{error, boot_timeout, NodeName}</c> is returned.</p></item>
<tag><c>InitTimeout</c></tag>
<item><p>The time to wait for the node until it calls the internal
callback function informing master about a successful startup.
Defaults to 1 second. In case of a timed out message, the result
<c>{error, init_timeout, NodeName}</c> is returned.</p></item>
<tag><c>StartupTimeout</c></tag>
<item><p>The time to wait until the node stops to run
<c>StartupFunctions</c>. Defaults to 1 second. If this time-out
occurs, the result <c>{error, startup_timeout, NodeName}</c> is
returned.</p></item>
</taglist>
<p><em>Options:</em></p>
<taglist>
<tag><c>monitor_master</c></tag>
<item><p>Specifies if the slave node is to be stopped if the
master node stops. Defaults to <c>false</c>.</p></item>
<tag><c>kill_if_fail</c></tag>
<item><p>Specifies if the slave node is to be killed if a time-out
occurs during initialization or startup. Defaults to <c>true</c>.
Notice that the node can also be still alive it the boot time-out
occurred, but it is not killed in this case.</p></item>
<tag><c>erlang_flags</c></tag>
<item><p>Specifies which flags are added to the parameters of the
executable <c>erl</c>.</p></item>
<tag><c>env</c></tag>
<item><p>Specifies a list of environment variables that will extend
the environment.</p></item>
</taglist>
<p><em>Special return values:</em></p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item><p><c>{error, already_started, NodeName}</c> if the node
with the specified name is already started on a specified
host.</p></item>
<item><p><c>{error, started_not_connected, NodeName}</c> if the
node is started, but not connected to the master node.</p></item>
<item><p><c>{error, not_alive, NodeName}</c> if the node on which
<seealso marker="#start-3"><c>ct_slave:start/3</c></seealso> is
called, is not alive. Notice that <c>NodeName</c> is the name of
the current node in this case.</p></item>
