made in this way:
{
  "job_name": "foo",
  "target": "panda01",
  "timeout": 18000,
  "actions": [
    {
        "command": "lava_test_shell",
        "parameters": {
            "timeout": 1800,
            "testdef_urls": ["file:///home/novello/ae/test/lava/test-definitions/openembedded/etherner.yaml"]
            }
    }
    ]
    }
Then I see thei ERROR Target includes no deployment_data:::: What does it means .
Best regards

The ethernet.yaml file is made  in this way:
metadata: 
    name: ethernet
    format: "Lava-Test-Shell Test Definition 1.0"
    description: "Test network in OE."

install:
    git-repos:
        - git://git.linaro.org/qa/test-definitions.git


run:
    steps:
        - "cd test-definitions/openembedded/scripts"
        - "./ethernet.sh"

parse:
    pattern: "^(?P<test_case_id>[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+):\\s(?P<result>\\w+)"
    fixupdict:
        PASS: pass
        FAIL: fail

The path is correct because from explorrer I can open it.
