Three issues: 1) The shebang has a typo. It should be "#!/bin/sh -x" not "#/bin/sh -x". 2) The heredoc end terminator needs leading whitespace removed; otherwise it doesn't work. 3) Running "/bin/sh -x" writes output to stderr, which autopkgtest treats as a failure by default. The easy fix is to add " allow-stderr" (note the space, not comma, separation) to the "Restrictions: " line in debian/tests/control.
With these changes, I tested your test and it appears to work.
