-Usage: `consul configtest [options]`
-
-At least one `-config-file` or `-config-dir` parameter must be given. Returns 0
-if the configuration is valid, or 1 if there are problems. The list of
-available flags are:
-
-* `-config-file` - Path to a config file. May be specified multiple times.
-
-* `-config-dir` - Path to a directory of config files. All files ending in
-  `.json` in the directory will be included. May be specified multiple times.
