-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2020-9ae9d78566 2020-04-22 19:13:04.001118 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-pexpect Product : Fedora EPEL 7 Version : 4.8.0 Release : 1.el7 URL : https://github.com/pexpect/pexpect Summary : Unicode-aware Pure Python Expect-like module Description : Pexpect is a pure Python module for spawning child applications; controlling them; and responding to expected patterns in their output. Pexpect works like Don Libes' Expect. Pexpect allows your script to spawn a child application and control it as if a human were typing commands.
Pexpect can be used for automating interactive applications such as ssh, ftp, passwd, telnet, etc. It can be used to automate setup scripts for duplicating software package installations on different servers. And it can be used for automated software testing. Pexpect is in the spirit of Don Libes' Expect, but Pexpect is pure Python. Unlike other Expect-like modules for Python, Pexpect does not require TCL or Expect nor does it require C extensions to be compiled. It should work on any platform that supports the standard Python pty module.
