Essentially, I wanted to have features like expect/pexpect. I was trying to see whether QMTest already has support for pexpect like features. If yes, then I want to leverage that as opposed to using pexpect.

Ahsan,

QMTest right now doesn't have any builtin support for driving 
interactive programs with expect. I can definitely see that being 
useful, though, and would be glad to incorporate any support for it, if 
you are willing to contribute a patch to that effect.

Thanks,
         Stefan
