Hi Guys,
I have just started looking into LTP and how test automation can be achieved
using the platform. While going through the very basics I am stuck on shell
script writing for LTP. I was following
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/wiki/Test-Writing-Guidelines#231-basic-shell-test-structure
and the very first thing that I got hit by was:
Set variables TCID, TST_TOTAL, and TST_COUNT before each test:
export TCID=<test name>
export TST_TOTAL=<Total Number of Tests >
export TST_COUNT=<Test case number>
so I exported the variables in the above mentioned shell script (is the current
wiki wrong???), the test passed as it should and I thought I was done and I
understand, but then when I tried to make the test fail by doing the following:
true
ret=$?
replaced with
false
ret=$?
the test still reports success :(
tst_exit says:
"Exits the tests, note that this function has no parameters, the PASSES/FAILS
reported by the tst_resm() interfaces were stored and are used for the exit
value."
If I explicitly write an 'exit 1' at the end of the testcase, it fails but I
believe that shouldn't be the case (using an explicit return shouldn't be
needed if tst_exit is being used)... What am I missing? (a brain perhaps... :S)
BR,
Awais
