When I run tests locally I do so by hand, because I invariably require more precise control over how the test suite is operating than the make targets allow.

Actually, mach will be able to handle every argument accepted by the Python test runners, complete with tie-ins to see the original help/usage info (as if you ran |runtests.py --help|. This isn't implemented yet, however.
I'm curious under what scenarios you've had to bypass runtests.py. IMO this almost always points to a missing feature from the test runner and is a bug waiting to be filed.
