inet.test.validation.ValidationTestTask
=======================================

.. py:class:: inet.test.validation.ValidationTestTask(check_function=None, name='validation test', **kwargs)

   Bases: :py:obj:`inet.test.simulation.TaskTestTask`


   Represents a self-contained test task that can be run without additional parameters.

   Initializes a new task object.

   :param name: A human readable short description of the task, usually a noun.
   :type name: string
   :param action: A human readable short description of the operation the task is carrying out, usually a verb.
   :type action: string
   :param task_result_class: The Python class name of the produced task result object.
   :type task_result_class: string


   .. py:method:: rerun(**kwargs)

      Runs the task again.

      Returns (:py:class:`TaskResult`):
          The task result.



   .. py:method:: run(context=None, progress=None, index=0, count=1, output_stream=sys.stdout, **kwargs)

      Runs the task.

      :param dry_run: Specifies to skip the actual running of the task but do everything else.
      :type dry_run: bool
      :param keyboard_interrupt_handler: Provides a class that will handle keyboard interrupts. This allows seamless exit from running multiple
                                         tasks.
      :type keyboard_interrupt_handler: :py:class:`inet.common.KeyboardInterruptHandler` or None
      :param handle_exception: Specifies if exceptions are caught and processed or passed to the caller.
      :type handle_exception: bool

      Returns (:py:class:`TaskResult`):
          The task result.



   .. py:method:: run_protected(**kwargs)

      Runs the task in the protected environment wrapped by :py:meth:`run`. This method is expected to be overridden
      by derived classes. The default implementation simply returns a task result with "DONE" result code.

      :param kwargs: Not used in this implementation.
      :type kwargs: dict

      Returns (:py:class:`TaskResult`):
          The task result.
