Atheist provides a limited subprocess interactivity. We evaluate the test in terms of the process results.

In a near future perhaps we introduce basic support for interaction through "python-expect" or this kind of task I/O.

Thank you

  Tests expecting data from standard input fails, because they expect data that never comes.

  I suggest an argument to the Task creator, named "stdin", which would allow user to specify which file to consider as input for the command executed for the test.
  For instance, following test would execute a command equivalent to "cat read.input | read".

> Task("read", stdin="read.input")
