I still find it a bit awkward to use python just to run some commands in sequence with some massaging of input/output data and parameters based on simple logic. bash scripts are great for that. And in that case it’s still a good idea to have automated testing instead of relying on running the script a few times to ensure it behaves as it should. I’ll definitely give this a try :)

I do agree though that if you need extensive massaging of output or arguments, python can help and make the whole thing easier.
