You don't always want to exit on error and even when you do you often want to output a meaningful error message so you should pass that in as well prior to testing the exit code.
I am not sure if your code is testing the return code of the command or the success of the redirection to the log, couldn't say without fooling around with it.
Probably better to tee the output rather than redirect it so you can see what is going on

Hi,
I face some problem with handling of nulls. I declare a variable - say i - and intialise to 0. Later I read it from console, wherein if I dont give any variable and press return key, I get this error:
"0403-004 Specify a parameter with this command"
Is there anyway to handle this error?

test::exit
Test::Exit(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Test::Exit(3pm)
NAME
Test::Exit - Test that some code calls exit() without terminating testing
VERSION
version 0.03
SYNOPSIS
use Test::More tests => 4;
use Test::Exit;
exits_ok { exit 1; } "exiting exits"
never_exits_ok { print "Hi!"; } "not exiting doesn't exit"
exits_zero { exit 0; } "exited with success"
exits_nonzero { exit 42; } "exited with failure"
DESCRIPTION
Test::Exit provides some simple tools for testing that code does or does not call "exit()", while stopping code that does exit at the point
of the "exit()". Currently it does so by means of exceptions, so it will not function properly if the code under test calls "exit()"
inside of an "eval" block or string.
The only criterion tested is that the supplied code does or does not call "exit()". If the code throws an exception, the exception will be
propagated and you will have to call it yourself. "die()"ing is not exiting for the purpose of these tests.
exits_ok
Tests that the supplied code calls "exit()" at some point.
exits_nonzero
Tests that the supplied code calls "exit()" with a nonzero value.
exits_zero
Tests that the supplied code calls "exit()" with a zero (successful) value.
never_exits_ok
Tests that the supplied code completes without calling "exit()".
