Does anyone know how could i to write a shell script that reads in a text file (i.e.tests.txt) as an input and then process it and saves the results on another file (i.e.cleantabletests.txt)

for example:

input tests.txt contains the following:

your test with name="firstTest" has finished succesfully but results="failed"
your test with name="secondTest" has finished successfully but results="passed"
your test with name="thirdTest" has finished successfully but results="passed"

process: use a shell script to read the tests.txt and process it to output the results in this cleantabletests.txt

output after tests.txt was processed cleantabletests.txt should look like this:

1, name="firstTest", results="failed"
2, name="secondTest", results="passed"
3, name="thirdTest", results="passed"

i am only interested in the names and results to use them to create a table afterwards

    We encourage questioners to show what they have tried so far to solve the problem themselves. – Cyrus Mar 05 '22 at 20:33
  • ...so, f/e, if you showed code that demonstrated that you already knew about and were trying to use the techniques taught by the linked duplicates, but were having a problem in applying those techniques, that would allow an answer distinct from the ones already given on those preexisting questions, because it would make your question more distinct and narrow. – Charles Duffy Mar 05 '22 at 20:41
  • the issue is i am not very well versed in bash scripting and what i am trying to do is this: **[i=0] ; for every line do { if [name=[.]* && result=[.]*] { NAME="name=[.]*" && RESULT="result=[.]*" && NUMBER=i; echo NUMBER NAME RESULT >> cleantablestests.txt; i++;}} if no more lines [quit]** sorry for my crude syntax – Theo Hexer Mar 13 '22 at 15:37
