In short, what's the replacement for programmatically terminating
click package based applications?

Some months back I used upstart-app-stop, but that no longer works. I
tried "stop <app_id>" but that also doesn't work. Is the process for
programmatically stopping apps documented.

The context is that I have a script on my pc which starts every app on
the device one by one. It waits a few seconds then takes a screenshot.
It analyses the picture to see if the app actually started (is the
screen all black or all white - which are often indicators the app
failed to start) and logs the results.

Now previously I used to use upstart-app-stop to kill off each app
after taking the screenshot, before moving on to the next one. So I
need to know what is the new way to stop apps for this script to
function.

As an aside, of course I could just start each app in turn and leave
it running, and let our application lifecycle reap the old ones - I
guess it would be a good test of that :)
