When I create a bash script, I want it to be robust. For a long time, the errexit option is used in a lot of my scripts. It makes the code a lot easier to read and maintain.
A while back, I was creating a script for checks that I wanted to run on the system. During writing test cases for this script, I hit a strange problem. All of the sudden, it seemed that the errexit didn’t work anymore. I could reproduce the problem fatefully.
