Since we often test new functionalities of kompile or krun, such as a new parser, which can be activated using command line arguments to these tool, it would be nice to allow ktest to be passed these options without having to modify each test entry in the config.xml. So to have a way to list these options at the beginning of the config.xml file. Or even better, to allow them as command line arguments to ktest, so one would not even need to modify config.xml.
We already allow users to pass default values for attributes in config.xml, such as for programs, results, etc., so why not do the same for attributes such as "kompile-option" and "krun-option".
