Not sure which automatic testing you are referring to

I think "make test" is traditional. Similarly "make tests" or "make
check" though those seem less used.

Sounds over-engineered. :P

IMHO, the most important question when running "make test" is "did all
tests pass?", and second is "which tests failed", which plain ASCII
seems sufficient for.
