@FarooqAbdulla02 is this log not required for our analysis post test run is done?
if needed then I suggest to copy inside other persistence folder as /tmp will get clear on reboot of OS

@Naresh-ibm yes ,its not required post test as the summary of the run log were already available in log files.

@FarooqAbdulla02 are these parameter holds the static values?
then can you please check if you can handle inside the .py file, just to reduce the yaml parameter

why are we breaking here, and what about the rest of the packages, are they not needed for this test
