Stefania commented on CASSANDRA-10086:
--------------------------------------
Thanks for the patch, +1. [~jbellis] could you commit on 3.0?
The tests for cqlsh are located in _cqlsh_tests/cqlsh_tests.py_. We are missing
some commands but we've started adding tests whenever we make any changes to
existing commands or add new ones. A good example would be the DESCRIBE
command, for which you find some tests in this file.
The test is actually quite simple, we just run cqlsh and check that there is no
error in stderr and that stdout contains one of the clear screen ANSI escape
sequences. Have a look at the top commit
[here|https://github.com/stef1927/cassandra-dtest/commits/10086].
It works on Linux. Are you by any chance running Windows or Mac OS, to see if
it works there too? If not, don't worry about it, just review the test and
confirm you are happy with it.

> It would be very helpful to have a "CLEAR" command to clear the cqlsh
> console. I learned (after researching a patch for this) that lowercase
> CTRL+L will clear the screen, but having a discrete command would make that
> more obvious. To match the expectations of Windows users, an alias to "CLS"
> would be nice as well.
