How can I capture the exit status code after running a bash script?

[nagesh....@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am trying to get the store the status code of the result of a bash script but have been unsuccessful so far. Using v0.8.1.

Here's what I have:

expect.sendLine("bash startScript.sh " + abc + " " + xyz);
expect.expect(contains("$"));
expect.sendLine("echo $?");
String startResult = expect.expect(contains("$")).getBefore();

I am expecting the result of startResult to be 0 if the bash script passes and a non-zero string if it fails, but I keep getting "echo".

Hi, 

SSH servers normally echo the received commands. 

The echo can be disabled by sending the 'stty -echo’ command before starting the server interaction.

Take a look at the following example of capturing the result of the pwd command when the command echo is switched off:
