Hi All, I think the above point was that if the ovs-vswitchd does a VLOG_ERR, (as it does when bad arguments like the above test are hit), then the unit-test automatically fails. Its not about adding the test code, but about how the Unit test infra handles VLOG_ERR output. As a result, we cannot have unit-tests that actually hit errors it seems, as they cause the unit-test to report a failure, instead of "negative testing" and passing the unit test. I'm not very familiar with the wider AT_* based unit testing, but that's my understanding of the infrastructure? > > <Snip> > > > > Br > > Amber Regards, -Harry _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
