Hi All,

The issue disappeared when I used the following command to execute.
    .

*/dts --config-file executions/execution.cfg*
The default value of command line argument obtains non existing blank file,
which led me to the above error.

diff --git a/framework/main.py b/framework/main.py
index a018af0..5ced34e 100755

 parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='DPDK test framework.')

 parser.add_argument('--config-file',

[root@hobbes dts]# ./dts --config-file executions/execution.cfg
duts ['10.193.186.216']
                INFO:
DUT 10.193.186.216
                INFO: ssh root@10.193.184.86

                INFO: ssh root@10.193.186.216

Do I need trigger the suit on tester machine?,
please point me to the elaborated explanation of configuring:
       1) ports.cfg
       2) execution.cfg
       3) crbs.cfg.
