Control process execution

[Wesley Mesquita]

Hi all,
I am trying to create a test environment to a couple C applications
(simple UDP and TCP server/clients), so I want to write this in python
and I m looking for ways to do it. Basically I need an execution timer
and timeout control (to kill the apps in certain situations). Looking
at google, I found the Pexpect package, but I m a little bit lost in
using it.

So, any good suggetions?

Thanks in advance.
