Hi,
I have one doubt, nft-tests.py when executed without any argument
or with option -d , already runs all commands in all test files ( don't
directly run nft -f path as according to structure of tests in py, for
lines starting with '*', table is added and similarly for ':', chain is added
and similarly for objects, sets, etc.) so directly exercising 'nft -f' path on
autogenerated file containing content of all tests files doesn't make
sense. And calling function run_test_file for the large autogenerated
file (as is called for each test file) will not make a lot of
difference in result
(compared to when executed without any argument)  other than not
printing total no. of test files executed and total no. of files passed.
I hope I'm clear.
Please correct me I'm wrong.
What is exactly that I have to do in this task ?
Thanks a lot for your time.

Regards,
Harsha Sharma
