You can get the results stored by estimation commands with -ereturn list-
and you can get results stored by other commands by -return list-. -test-
and -testnl- use the results stored by the last estimation command. If
-test- and -testnl- would overwrite those stored results you would have
to reissue the estimation command after each -test- command if you wanted
to perform more than one test.
