vrest-ng-cli run --projectdir=/path/to/your/project/directory 
            --testsuitenames="Sample\ Test\ Suite"
            --logger=xunit 
            --logfilepath=/path/to/directory/for/vrest-logs/logs.xml

    --projectdir     : Provide the path of the project directory which 
                       contains the testsuites.json file.
                       
                       If you dont provide any filter, then it will execute
                       all the testcases available in the project.

    --testsuitenames  : Optional Filter: Provide the comma separated list of 
                        test suites which you want to execute in double quotes.
    --tags            : Optional Filter: Provide the comma separated list of 
                        tags which you want to execute in double quotes.
    --methods         : Optional Filter: Provide the comma separated list of 
                        method names which you want to execute in double quotes.

    -T, --timeout     : How much to wait for response after execution 
                        of test case.
                       
                        It should be provided in unit of seconds.
                        e.g. -T=3 will wait for 3 seconds for response

    -N, --env         : Provide the environment name to initialize 
                        the global variables.
                       
                        By default environment `Default` is used.

    -S, --nosslcheck  : If this argument is `true`, vREST NG CLI will process
                        all requests, without Secure Certificate Check.
                       
                        By default Secure Certificate Check is enabled. 
                       
                        This option is useful in self-signed certificate 
                        issues.
            
    -C, --consoleLogging: If this argument is `false`, then the runner will not
                        log the results on console.

    -L, --logger      : Your desired logging of the vREST NG CLI execution 
                        process and result.

                        This can be either `console` or `json` or 
                        `csv` or `xunit`.

                        By default `console` logger is used.

    -F, --logfilepath : Valid if other than `console` logger 
                        is selected.

                        Absolute path of the log file, into which 
                        execution process and result logs will be dumped.

                        If path/file is not present, tool will try 
                        to setup that path, and create file automatically.

                        Please note that if file already exists, 
                        that will be overwritten.

                        By default it will be the `vrest/logs.[json|xml|csv]` 
                        in current directory.

    -H, --help        : To see this help.
