Bug Description

For autopilot tests with the implied path/command/depends, it would be good to support this syntax:

  "x-test": {
       "my_ap_test": {
           "autopilot_module": "test_module_name",
           "depends": ["extra_depends", "extradep2"]
       }
   }

which keeps the current automagic, but adds extra dependencies. This is better than having to specify the full autopilot command as that tends to change every now and then.

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 3.1git1

---------------
autopkgtest (3.1git1) utopic; urgency=medium

  Upload current git head, some of this appears to be urgent.

  Improvements:
  * Add --copy option to copy a file or directory into the testbed.
  * Support specifying a click name like "com.example.myapp" with --click to
    test an already installed click instead of a local *.click file.
    (LP: #1338899)
  * Introduce "autopilot_module" click test control field for specifying an
    autopilot test module name. This allows tests to require additional test
    dependencies, restrictions, etc. without having to specify the full
    invocation of autopilot. (LP: #1338911)

  Bug fixes:
  * Set $USER environment variable also for tests that run as root.
    (LP: #1337802)
  * Add lintian override for ssh-setup/SKELETON, it's deliberately not
    executable.
  * Increase timeout for aa-clickhook workaround for LP#1337253, 100s is often
    not enough.
  * ssh-setup/adb: Disabling the first-time wizards sometimes fails due to adb
    being brittle at that time. Retry up to 5 times.
