TCL Debuggers

  • Investigated 2 TCL debuggers
  • Implemented SUT for the SaliraTest package
  • Setup sonssun in the lab
  • Built 2.2.1.1

Since the testing involves expect and TCL I thought it would be good to find a good debugger. My stuff is getting complicated and a debugger would sure help. It would also help engineers writting tests. Unfortunately these debuggers work with TCL and get tripped up with expect functions.

SUT stands for System Under Test. If this environment variable is set then you no longer need to specify -m <IPAddress> to invoke a test or to run tester. Handy.
