I tried this command and found "$TESTPID" is empty string.  So the
test command doesn't create child process.

Yeah, I referred the code from another script test_arm_spe_fork.sh,
this script doesn't fork new child process.  So here I get over
complexity, will drop "killall $(basename $TEST_PROGRAM)" in next
version.

Thanks a lot for reviewing!
