+Runs tests written in contracts. This command starts a TXE (Test eXecution Environment) server and runs `nargo test` with the appropriate oracle resolver.

-Options:
-
-- `-e, --env <key=value>`: Set environment variables (can be used multiple times).
-- `--no-tty`: Run the container without a TTY.
-- `--rm`: Automatically remove the container when it exits.
-- `-i, --interactive`: Keep STDIN open even if not attached.
-- `-t, --tty`: Allocate a pseudo-TTY.
+Options passed after `aztec test` are forwarded to `nargo test`. See `nargo test --help` for available options.
