Summary:
In order to fully script my integration testing workflow
As a developer or continuous integration server
I want to load my newly compiled app onto my device from the command-line without hacks

Right now, the only two ways I've found to load an app onto a device from the command line are:

1. Use xcodebuild(1) with a buildaction of "test." This is a hack because I don't want to run unit tests. I just want the app on the device so I can run integration tests.
2. Use a third-party tool like ios-deploy[1], which is GPL'ed (I strongly prefer MIT or Apache2 licenses) and apparently uses private Apple API (and is therefore liable to break).

I want something like a buildaction of "load" (or "deploy" or ...) on xcodebuild(1) that simply installs the application onto the specified destination.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. At the command line, run:

xcodebuild -project MyApp.xcodeproj -configuration Debug -sdk iphoneos -scheme MyApp -destination "platform=iOS,name=Juliette"  build test


Expected Results:
I want to invoke xcodebuild with "deploy" (or some other name) instead of "test", like this:

xcodebuild -project MyApp.xcodeproj -configuration Debug -sdk iphoneos -scheme MyApp -destination "platform=iOS,name=Juliette"  build deploy

Actual Results:
Running with the buildaction of "test" works, but it runs tests on the device, which is more than what I want to do.
