Yes, you can add the <testcase> element and use the <tcstatus> element to
record testcase passes and fails and the testcase passes/fails, etc will
be shown in the STAX Monitor's "Testcase Info" panel. You can use a
<loop> (or <iterate> element) to run multiple testcases where each
testcase may contain one or more <process> elements (and/or <stafcmd>
elements, etc). Each <testcase> as well as each <process> that is run
will be displayed by the STAX Monitor in the "Active Job Element" panel
while they are actively running. Also, any messages you send will show up
in the STAX Monitor's "Messages" panel.
Here's an example of a STAX job that runs 10 tests, where each "test" runs
a "ls /" command and records a testcase pass or fail depending on if the
"ls /" command ran successfully or not:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE stax SYSTEM "stax.dtd">
<stax>
<defaultcall function="test"/>
<function name="test">
<sequence>
<script>
numTests = 10
command = 'ls /'
numPasses = 0
numFails = 0
</script>
<loop var="i" from="1" to="numTests">
<testcase name="'Test%s' % (i)">
<sequence>
<!-- Run a command (e.g. "ls /")and return its stdout/stderr
-->
<process>
<location>'local'</location>
<command mode="'shell'">command</command>
<stderr mode="'stdout'"/>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
<if expr="RC == 0">
<sequence>
<script>
msg = '%s: Output from "%s" command:\n%s' % \
(STAXCurrentTestcase, command, STAXResult[0][1])
numPasses = numPasses + 1
</script>
<tcstatus result="'pass'"/>
</sequence>
<else>
<sequence>
<script>
msg = '%s: "%s" failed with RC=%s, STAFResult=%s,
STAXResult=%s' % \
(STAXCurrentTestcase, command, RC, STAFResult,
STAXResult)
numFails = numFails + 1
</script>
<tcstatus result="'fail'">msg</tcstatus>
</sequence>
</else>
</if>
<message log="1">msg</message>
</sequence>
</testcase>
</loop>
<!-- Return the result -->
<return>
'%s Tests: %s passes, %s fails' % (numTests, numPasses, numFails)
</return>
</sequence>
</function>
</stax>
You can run this STAX job via the STAX Monitor to monitor its results as
it runs.
Or you can submit a STAX EXECUTE request to run this STAX job and wait for
it to complete and return its job result as follows:
# STAF local STAX EXECUTE FILE /stax/runTests.xml WAIT RETURNRESULT
Response
--------

Hi Sharon,
Thanks a lot for the quick response, i want one more help :
I want to monitor a job with stax , say i am executing a bunh of tests
and want to monitor. So here if i'll take previous example:
i'll run ls for 100 time and want to monitor, so for iteration i will use
loop but for monitoring will it monitor the test lively? Can you please
share a monitor example for a live scenario.
Thanks

If you want a STAX job's result to be set to a message then you need to
return that message from the STAX job's main function using the <return>
element.
For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE stax SYSTEM "stax.dtd">
<stax>
<defaultcall function="test"/>
<function name="test">
<sequence>
<script>command = 'ls /'</script>
<!-- Run a command (e.g. "ls /")and return its stdout/stderr -->
<process>
<location>'local'</location>
<command mode="'shell'">command</command>
<stderr mode="'stdout'"/>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
<if expr="RC == 0">
<script>lsOutput = 'Output from "%s" command:\n%s' % (command,
STAXResult[0][1])</script>
<else>
<script>
lsOutput = '"%s" failed with RC=%s, STAFResult=%s,
STAXResult=%s' % \
(command, RC, STAFResult, STAXResult)
</script>
</else>
</if>
<message log="1">lsOutput</message>
<!-- Get the current date-time -->
<script>
from time import localtime, strftime
currentTime = strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S", localtime())
</script>
<message log="1">'Current date-time: %s' % currentTime</message>
<!-- Create a result containing "Hello world", the current
date-time, and output from "ls /" command -->
<script>result = 'Hello world @ %s.\n%s' % (currentTime,
lsOutput)</script>
<!-- Log the result in the STAX Job User Log and send to the STAX
Monitor messages -->
<message log="1">result</message>
<!-- Return the result -->
<return>result</return>
</sequence>
</function>
</stax>
You can submit a STAX EXECUTE request to run this STAX job and wait for it
to complete and return its job result as follows:
# STAF local STAX EXECUTE FILE C:/stax/returnJobResult.xml WAIT

Subject: [staf-users] simple stax script
Hi ,
I am a newbie to STAX, wants to use in my automated solution in Linux Env.
Can any one share me a sample stax script which will return me
1) hello world message & current date & output of 'ls' (unix command)
both in STDOUT & in a file.
I have followed couple of blogs, executed sample stax script aswell, but
not able to get the result , it always comes as
Result : None
