Hi All,
I am new to avocado and have just started to look into it.
I have been playing with avocado on Fedora 24 for a few weeks. I wrote a
small script to run commands and was exploring the option
"--output-check-record", but it never populate the files stderr.expected
and stdout.expected. Instead, it prints an error with "[stderr]" in the
job.log file. My understanding is that the output (stderr and stdout)
of commands/scripts executed by avocado would be captured and saved on
those files (like on synctest.py example), but it doesn't. I want to
know if I am doing something wrong or it is a bug.
The script is very simple and the way I execute the command is:
cmd = ('/usr/sbin/xl create /VM/guest1/vm.cfg')
if utils.system(cmd) == "0":
pass
else:
return False
The command send to stdout:
Parsing config from /VM/guest1/vm.cfg
I run the test as:
avocado run --output-check-record all xentest.py
The job.log file contains:
2016-09-07 13:04:48,015 test L0214 INFO | START
1-/root/avocado-vt/io-fs-autotest-xen/xen/tests/xentest.py:xentest.test_xen_start_stop;1

Thanks for your time and help.
