Summary

juniper.device.jsnapy fails with config_file option and juniper.device.pyez

Steps to reproduce

cat TEST_FILES/jsnapy_main.yml 
tests:
  - TEST_FILES/test_interface.yml 


cat TEST_FILES/test_interface.yml 
tests_include:
  - test_interface

# use '/' in your test cases apart from xpath if u want to search all elements irrespective of hierarchy, ex: in id if u use /name instead of name
# then it will search in all the names in given xpath irrespective of their position
# for simple, one test using command

test_interface:
  - command: show interfaces terse 
  - iterate:
      xpath: '//physical-interface'
      id: './name'
      tests:
        - no-diff: oper-status       # element in which test is performed
          err: "Test Failed!! oper-status  got changed, before it was <{{pre['oper-status']}}>, now it is <{{post['oper-status']}}>"
          info: "oper-status is same before it was <{{pre['oper-status']}}>, now it is <{{post['oper-status']}}>"

        - list-not-less: oper-status
          err: "name list changed, oper-state: <{{pre['oper-state']}}> with name <{{id_0}}> is not present in post-snap"
          info: "name list is same, oper-state is present in pre-snap: <{{pre['oper-status']}}> and post-snap: <{{post['oper-status']}}>"

        - list-not-more: name
          err: "<{{post['name']}}> name is not present in pre snapshot"
          info: "name is same, before it was <{{pre['name']}}>, now it is <{{post['name']}}>"
