The easiest method is factorial, where given a set of parameters and ranges/values (probably in a JSON file), exhaustively test all combinations. This will realistically only work for small sets of parameters due to combinatorial explosion.

There are other ways of traversing the parameter space, and those should be incorporated as well (i.e. hook into PyPet).

Not really something that is even on the near horizon, at least for me. If there is an undergrad interested in ML type stuff that wants to pursue this sort of thing, then a new issue could be opened.
