Bug Description
previous functionality allowed for non-interactive runs.
This has disappeared since things were moved to launchers via checkbox-launcher.
Essentially, the hyperscale team and a couple groups from OEMs who are using our tools for cert testing in-house have asked for the ability to run from a single command line.
Asking outside OEM engineers to learn and create launcher config files is a no-go. They shouldn't have to edit external config files simply to accomplish the same thing as
plainbox run -w /usr/share/
we need the ability to do exactly that and have it automatically run a whitelist with no user interaction.
at the minimum, I would like to be able to specify the following options:
specific path to whitelist
secure_id for automatic result submission
log file path
verbosity level for logs

Added Michael Reed to follow this. As of now, Hyperscale has completely abandoned use of c-c-s in their testing because of the lack of automated runs.
As stated elsewhere (email) this is also a potential blocker for using this in OCP certifications as well, and has been requested by multiple OEMs who were interested in using our tools in their own testing environments.
