How do I return results from tests run via the SSH Launcher plug-in to SilkCentral Test Manager?

ANSWER
----------------------------------

Error /warning counts and messages are returned to SilkCentral Test Manager if the standard output of the command executed on the remote machine is in proper SilkCentral results format. This is a simple XML format.

 
- 
  1 
  2 
  false 
- 
  some_message_text_ 
  Failure 
  
  

Examples are attached ("junitOutputAllPass.xml" and "junitOutputFail.xml") but are in ".txt" format so ensure that you change the extensions to ".xml" files. JUnit was used as an example here, but the results of any arbitrary test could be specified in this format.

An example of a command that would return the proper format would be:
"cat junitOutputAllPass.xml" on a remote unix/linux machine. The
example XML files can be used in this way.

junitOutputAllPass.txt junitOutputFail.txt
