+.SH NAME
+\fBztest\fR \- was written by the ZFS Developers as a ZFS unit test.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.BI "ztest <options>"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+This manual page documents briefly the \fBztest\fR command.
+.LP
+\fBztest\fR was written by the ZFS Developers as a ZFS unit test. The
+tool was developed in tandem with the ZFS functionality and was
+executed nightly as one of the many regression test against the daily
+build. As features were added to ZFS, unit tests were also added to
+\fBztest\fR. In addition, a separate test development team wrote and
+executed more functional and stress tests.
+.LP
+By default \fBztest\fR runs for ten minutes and uses block files
+(stored in /tmp) to create pools rather than using physical disks.
+Block files afford \fBztest\fR its flexibility to play around with
+zpool components without requiring large hardware configurations.
+However, storing the block files in /tmp may not work for you if you
+have a small tmp directory.
+.LP
+By default is non-verbose. This is why entering the command above will
+result in \fBztest\fR quietly executing for 5 minutes. The -V option
+can be used to increase the verbosity of the tool. Adding multiple -V
+option is allowed and the more you add the more chatty \fBztest\fR
+becomes.
+.LP
+After the \fBztest\fR run completes, you should notice many ztest.*
+files lying around. Once the run completes you can safely remove these
+files. Note that you shouldn't remove these files during a run. You
+can re-use these files in your next \fBztest\fR run by using the -E
+option.

+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.LP
+To override /tmp as your location for block files, you can use the -f
+option:
+.IP
+ztest -f /
+.LP
+To get an idea of what ztest is actually testing try this:
+.IP
+ztest -f / -VVV
+.LP
+Maybe you'd like to run ztest for longer? To do so simply use the -T
+option and specify the runlength in seconds like so:
+.IP
+ztest -f / -V -T 120
