So the test script basically looks like:

set test test1
expect { -re "Hello" { pass $test} }

without the need to use send?  What is the role of the
variable test anyway?

Can you give examples or basic structure of both?  I
was searching for related examples but in vain.  The
manual only lists the pass, fail, expected
pass,...etc. calls for unit testing, but doesn't
really show how to use them.

Thanks,
