BASH

After Expect, its now time for me to learn Bash [Bourne-Again Shell] n' shellscripting.. I found this excellent guide which I'm looking through. As I'm sure you all know, bash is the command prompt or shell that is mainly used by Linux, so its really the most essential thing for someone who's going to work on such UNIX-like OSes..

Expect

Its been a long time. I'm in a new project again, where I've to automate interactive applications as part of testing. I'm consulting my ex-PM (an outside resource) to work and he suggested Expect as a solution. Its done for the US Govt., viz. NIST by this dude. To start off, I found this really helpful tutorial, with which I wrote my first Expect script. Besides, I found a good index at another resource on the Cotse site.. I'll keep this updated.
