#170 Incomplete SAS log reading in assertLog

[Johannes Lang]

I wondered why %assertlog did not show any errors or warnings, whereas in the HTML log view, a warning was reported.
This warning should have been also recognized by %assertlog since it would have been caught by the respective regex in %_checklog.
But: When I read the SASUnit log, it revealed that only the first 1000 lines of the test scenario log were read.
And the warning appeared in the remainder of the log file (which has 1688 lines in total), so it was not found by %assertlog.

Why is _checklog reading only 1000 lines of the respective log file?

I can't see any reason concerning SASUnit source code checking only 1000 observations.

Here is an excerpt of _checklog reading 120.000+ observations:

MPRINT(_CHECKLOG): RUN;

MLOGIC(_CHECKLOG): Ending execution.

I need to investigate deeper. Do you have any additional information about your run-time environement like operating system, SAS Version etc.

I this a problem with reading UNIX-Files under Windows regarding CR/LF?

Thank you, I found the reason: It was in my test scenario, where I placed an OBS=1000 option statement in order to speed up my test data processing.
Didnt know that this will also influence the log parsing :-/
Sorry, I will close the ticket, since it has nothing to do with SASUnit itself.
