--test implies --one-time which means that puppet should run one time and
exit. this should not fire off puppet as a daemon. Most likely you
previously ran without this option.
I would kill the running puppet process, run with --test again, and verify
with `ps` that a process does not start in the background.

I had a look at the man page for aptitude, there is a -y option that should
fix this.
You can always try piping the linux command `yes` to the command, its a
little hackish, but its another option.
