DESCRIPTION top

       This command does assorted sanity tests, initially through linked
       routines but also will look for a directory with more tests in
       the form of scripts.

       To get a list of available tests use perf test list, specifying a
       test name fragment will show all tests that have it.

       numbers obtained from perf test list.
