Starting CTS from the commandline

Question

How do I start the Android CTS from the command line, I have tried every combination that I can think of:

~/programs/android-cts/tools$ ./startcts --config ../repository/host_config.xml start -plan CTS

and the like does not work. Any input will be very much appreciated?

Running CTS has changed since the release of ICS. You should check my answer at http://stackoverflow.com/a/10183036/198348 — Ehtesh Choudhury, Apr 16 '12 at 23:24

I have been using CTS version CTS4.4R3.
Below is how we can run CTS on KK .
Go to "tools" folder in CTS4.4R3 and enter the below commands : 
command to Run CTS :
.../tools$./cts-tradefed
>run cts --plan CTS

Creating a Plan for Failed Cases in the 1st run:
add derivedplan -p "anyName"-s <SessionID> -r fail
Run added Plan : run cts --plan <PlanName> 

SessionID can be checked as : list results

Running individual class in CTS :
run cts -c <ClassName>
run cts -c com.android.cts.monkey.android.widget.cts.AutoCompleteTextViewTest

While this may answer the OP's question, a few words of explanation would help current and future readers understand this answer even better. – Thom Aug 31 '15 at 11:34

We need to script it, so I need cts to run in non-interactive mode, i.e. from the command-line. – Bjarke Freund-Hansen Jan 03 '12 at 10:28

Apparently it is just a matter of reading the CTS source code, and then getting the parameters correct: :)

$ ./startcts start --plan CTS

This doesn't work with recent versions of Android. There is a 'cts-tradefed' script instead. – androidFan Apr 04 '18 at 18:02
