Update of test.py

Update of test.py

[Tommaso Pecorella, 2016-04-04 13:32:41]

I'm not a Python coder, so I don't know where the problem is.
On a MacOS X (Python 2.7.10), the result is:

tommy-pc:ns-3-dev pecos$ ./test.py -s sixlowpan-iphc 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./test.py", line 1925, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "./test.py", line 1922, in main
    return run_tests(unknown_args)
  File "./test.py", line 1085, in run_tests
    elif len(options.example):
TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()
tommy-pc:ns-3-dev pecos$

https://codereview.appspot.com/293030043/diff/1/test.py
File test.py (right):

https://codereview.appspot.com/293030043/diff/1/test.py#newcode1292
test.py:1292: #
If there's no more code following this comment, perhaps its position is wrong.

I am surprised python didn't choke sooner since the script relies on "argparse"
(superseeding optparse) and is only available in python3 "New in version 3.2.".
Thus this new test.py only works with python >= 3.2.

Also note that when using this script you should run "python3 ./waf configure"
since waf will generate different lock filenames depending on python2 or python3
use (sys.PLATFORM returns "linux2" in python2 and "linux" in python3).

Could you rerun with python3 ?
Thanks for testing !

ns-3 reconfigured with Python 3.4 and rebuilt.
tommy-pc:ns-3-dev pecos$ python3.4 test.py -s sixlowpan-iphc 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 1925, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "test.py", line 1922, in main
    return run_tests(unknown_args)
  File "test.py", line 1085, in run_tests
    elif len(options.example):
TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

No luck.
