Hi @Bipinjohnson ,
In the documentation of
The question mark means the previous character must appear 0 or 1 time. The parenthesis also have a meaning of capturing substrings. So you should escape those characters:
I am not sure if this works. Play it safe and just check for:
Then also: you do not check if the string is found. You should check the returned value.
In the documentation of
expect() you can read: Quote:Strings will be compiled to re types. This means your expected string is a dangerous one because it will be treated as a regular expression:
'Enable QSE API? (Y/n)'The question mark means the previous character must appear 0 or 1 time. The parenthesis also have a meaning of capturing substrings. So you should escape those characters:
'Enable QSE API\? \(Y\/n\)'I am not sure if this works. Play it safe and just check for:
'Enable QSE API'Then also: you do not check if the string is found. You should check the returned value.
return_val=child.expect(['Enable QSE API'])
#if i receive the same string then i want to pass y to the terminal
if return_val == 0:
child.sendline('y')
else:
print("The expected string was not found")
sys.exit()
