Bash test step

The Bash test step executes an arbitrary shell script. The maximum length of the script is 10240 characters.

The step fails if the script exits with a non-zero exit code. The content of the standard output and standard error is recorded as the result of the test step and can be viewed using the Wenenu UI or accessed using the Wenenu API. The maximum combined length of the standard output and error is 524288 characters. The output is truncated if it exceeds the maximum length.

Note The variables of the test scenario are available as environment variables during the execution.
Note Filesystem operations are available. Every test step runs in separate docker containers. Test steps in the same test scenario have a common directory mounted into the container, sharing files between test steps is possible. The mounted directory is under /tests which is the current directory when the test execution starts.
Warning For security reasons, do not display any sensitive information in the step result.
