Answer 1

As of ICS (4.0), cts has had a bit of a makeover. Now it's called cts-tradefed.

The Google-provided documentation is available here.

For a simple way to get up to speed on using cts-tradefed from your AOSP root directory and a connected device with a matching AOSP build:

make cts
cd out/host/$OSDIR/cts/android-cts/tools
./cts-tradefed

Here, $OSDIR is either linux-x86, darwin-x86

in the cts-shell:

help
list packages
list plans
run cts --plan CTS
run cts --package android.webkit

If it's not obvious, you can also use one of the plans or packages listed from list packages or list plans. Hopefully this will be helpful to someone else. It would've been quite helpful for me to find it earlier.
