You don't have any man pages in section 8 so that can be removed from 
Makefile.am.

You need to add a line break for the various ways to run the commands.

ipa-test-config [options]
ipa-test-config [options] --global
ipa-test-config [options] hostname

renders as

ipa-test-config   [options]    ipa-test-config    [options]    --global
ipa-test-config [options] hostname

ipa-test-config lacks a header.

ipa-test-config doesn't say where the configuration is stored.

ipa-test-task, in the install-topo description drop the word Please.

Almost none of the 72 options to ipa-run-test are documented in the man 
page.

It's a shame the test commands don't run in the tree.
