Considered Alternatives
- http://pythonpaste.org/scripttest/
- easy to work with
- can only trace a single directory (would not work with /etc + ~)
- extra dependency not in any distro
- robotframework
- additional (fat) dependency
- integration with cmake?
- does not allow one to capture stdout, stderr + return code
- expect
- interactive testing (e.g. for kdb mount)
- quite long for simple things (e.g. check /bin/true needs 4 lines)
- new syntax for Elektra (TCL)
- additional dependency
