    Problem Report Number 2592
    Submitter's Classification Test Suite problem
    State Resolved
    Resolution Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Problem Resolution ID TSD.X.1347
    Raised 2013-05-06 08:21
    Updated 2013-05-07 11:08
    Published 2013-05-07 11:08
    Product Standard Commands and Utilities V4 (UNIX 03)
    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSC version 5.3.5,5.3.6
    Test Identification POSIX.upe/at #811
    Specification Shell and Utilities Issue 6
    Problem Summary VSC assertion 811 uses too permissive of a regular expression with grep.
    Problem Text VSC assertion 811 uses too permissive of a regular expression with grep.
    The script tset/POSIX.upe/at/at.sh line 1271 in VSC version 5.3.5
    contains the following:
    ! grep $job $CT_STDOUT > /dev/null

    $job expands to an integer which can incorrectly match any output
    containing this substring
    (such as a date string, i.e. job "13" is matched in "2013").

    The regular expression would be better written as:
    ! grep "^${job_id} " $CT_STDOUT > /dev/null

    which is more specific to the output of the `at' command.
