Controlling VM lifecycle from the command line?

We are developing a web application and are looking into using Parallels for cross-platform browser testing. As we are writing automated tests, we would like to start and shutdown virtual machines from the command line, so that we can set up a job to automatically run the tests for each platform when a new build of the application is available.

Will Parallels allow us to do this?

Thanks.
 
1. Full scripting API is planned for next major version.
2. For now you can prepare VM configuration (*.pvs file) with autostart option and run VM from script using command Parallels.exe <name>.pvs . To shutdown VM you can use terminate command on Parallels.exe process.
