Description

In a recent GitHub Actions tests, there was a failure with checking the error code of a test:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-daffodil/pull/477/checks?check_run_id=1745505882#step:10:200

Based on the output, it's looks like Daffodil did the right thing, but then failed to detect the correct error code. The error makes this clear:

Error: Test org.apache.daffodil.schematron.TestEmbedded.extends2 failed: unparseable ec, D:\a\incubator-daffodil\incubator-daffodil>

This "unparseable ec" is expecting an integer, but instead it got the command prompt. Looking at the output, we can see that we are sending the "echo %errorlevel%" command before we get to the prompt, and our code seems to be accepting the command prompt as a match for the error code.

Perhaps we need to have an expect that looks for the prompt before sending new line?
