Daniel Hilst db820cfcc0 test(xcat-core): a failed extraction in the error-commands test stops the whole suite
ubuntu_subiquity_error_commands.t called BAIL_OUT at both places where
its extraction of the error-commands block stopped matching. prove stops
every remaining file on a bail-out, so a change to the template that
breaks the regex in this file also hides every test that would have run
after it. die is just as loud and costs only this file.

Three comments the branch added also carried the bug report: the test
header, the template comment and the Template.pm comment each traced the
failure from the error command to the provisioning timeout. Each now
states the constraint the reader cannot see in the code.

xCAT-test

Unit tests that run from the source checkout are split by implementation language:

Test type Location Runner
Perl unit tests xCAT-test/unit/*.t prove -r xCAT-test/unit
Shell unit tests xCAT-test/bats/*.bats bats -r xCAT-test/bats
CLI functional tests xCAT-test/autotest/testcase/ and xCAT-test/autotest/bundle/ xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -t <case> or xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -b <bundle>

Use Perl .t tests for Perl modules, Perl scripts, templates, and repository artifacts. Use BATS tests for shell-script behavior that can be exercised from the checkout by sourcing a shell library or script and shadowing external commands.

Shell behavior should not be tested by Perl tests that grep shell source. Put those tests under xCAT-test/bats instead.

See unit/README.md and bats/README.md for the detailed rules for each unit-test suite.
