Run iOS Application from Command Line

Question

I am in process of doing some Continuous Integration work under which i would download the .ipa from the server install it on the device and finally need to invoke the application installed and perform some automated tests.

I have been able to figure out on how i would download the .ipa from server and deploy it on the device(using ios-deploy) but i am stuck on how can i automatically invoke the application. I know i can do this via Instruments but i don't want to follow that path. Is there any way this can be done??

PS - I am not using Instruments for Automation.
