I have similar questions as Santosh.

What I think is missing in the STAF documentation is an example of building a 
STAF framework and executing tests within that framework.   Given a system 
under test that is distributed across multiple hosts and running multiple 
processes on each host:
  what does a STAF user need to do to setup STAF in that environment,
  what STAX jobs does the user need to create to run an individual test,
 how are test suites organized,
  how is the execution of a test suite triggered,
  how to manage test results.

The details of the above seem to be in the documents, but a conceptual 
framework for how they tie together is not readily apparent.

Please see the sample Python code in the STAF Python User's Guide at 
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFPython.htm.

For example (copied from this document), here is a Python 2.x example of a 
Python script that registers with STAF, submits a couple of STAF service 
requests, and then unregisters with STAF.

    from PySTAF import *
   import sys

   try:
       handle = STAFHandle("MyTest")
   except STAFException, e:
       print "Error registering with STAF, RC: %d" % e.rc
       sys.exit(e.rc)

   result = handle.submit("local", "ping", "ping")

   if (result.rc != 0):
       print "Error submitting request, RC: %d, Result: %s" % (result.rc, 
result.result)

   result = handle.submit("local", "var", "resolve string 
{STAF/Config/OS/Name}")

   if (result.rc != 0):
       print "Error submitting request, RC: %d, Result: %s" % (result.rc, 
result.result)
   else:
       print "OS Name: %s" % result.result

   rc = handle.unregister()

   sys.exit(rc)

Did you check out the "Getting Started with STAF" guide available via

If you want to submit STAF service requests via a Python program, then also 
check out the "STAF Python User's Guide" via 
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/docs.php.  It includes sample code on how 
to submit STAF service requests via a Python program.
