Hi Will,
Since I'm not familiar with DejaGnu, what does it buy you over 'sh' and
good old exit 1; other than the need for expect and dejagnu? I looked at
it once in a past life but have since flushed my cache. Seems like we
still have to write all the test code outselves?

Hi Phil,
It doesn't have a huge advantage over 'sh'. It has infrastructure to run
subsets of tests and some ability to do regular expression matching to
look for specific thing. It has ability to test out interactive
programs, but I don't see that being a big advange for tesing pfmon and
libpfm. The main reason for dejagun's use in this case was I had some
existing framework for oprofile testing which was written using dejagnu,
so I start with that.
Certainly additional tests that need to be written.
