Ahh, ya, that stuff is deeeeeeep in the bowels of autotest.  We had some
docs on it somewhere...

https://github.com/autotest/autotest/wiki/AddingTest
...and...
https://github.com/autotest/autotest/wiki/AutotestApi
(in case you haven't read them)

IIRC, none of that stuff has changed much in a long time, so the docs
should be /mostly/ correct.

As for passing arguments, it's really up to you, since you're on the
edge of what autotest was intended for.  However, if you'd like to stay
in line with the rest of the content...then look through some of the
other tests to see what __kind__ of stuff is kept in control files vs
passed into a test.  There is a pattern, but it's more philosophical
than technological :)
