I run --test when I want to log into a machine and watch it do a run
in a slightly more verbose and debug/observation friendly manner. 
'watch' seems to describe this use case well, it doesnt imply that no
changes will be made for example.  

I'd want to run --test when I want it to imply what --test does today
but also --noop which is what most newcomers on irc also seem to think.
The word 'test' seems to imply a dry run
