ftracetest: Fix instance test to use proper shell command for pids

2016-02-19T17:11:21+00:00

The ftracetest instance test used parsing of the "jobs" output to find the pid of the subshell that is executed previously. But this is not portable to all major shells that may run these tests. The proper way to get the pid of the subshell is the shell command "$!". This will return the pid of the previously executed command. Use that instead, otherwise the test does not work in all environments.

ftracetest: Add instance create and delete test

2015-11-24T14:29:14+00:00

Create a test to test instance creation and deletion. Several tasks are created that create 3 directories and delete them. The tasks all create the same directories. This places a stress on the code that creates and deletes instances. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
