Hi,
your problem is caused by the fact that autorunner responds to some
command line arguments (run your suite with --help for the list). if
you want to pass arguments to your tests, use -- as a delimiter
between testrunner's and your arguments.
For very detailed info read lib/test/unit/autorunner.rb.
