Expect with tcltest?

[whytea]

I have just read up tcltest. I'm wondering if tcltest is useful to be
used together with Expect. For example, Expect is used to remote login
and run some commands and tcltest can do the pattern matching and result
reporting. Are there any benefits in doing it this way? Or, perhaps
there is no value to use tcltest with Expect?

BTW, in tcltest, is there a way to test something you don't expect to
see. For example, you don't want to see "Fault" or "Error"?

With the [::tcltest::customMatch] command you can register a new mode
for the -match option to the [::tcltest::test] command, to set
the result matcher to any command you like. Create a proc that does
the kind of matching you want and use it.
