A long-time issue has been a consistent way for developers to effortlessly run tests on local builds. This patch introduces a new, alternative "run-test" target, which allows for a smoother developer experience in running tests. It does not modify or remove any existing ways of running tests, which are still needed for automated test systems and old scripts.
