## Read env vars in Python { #read-env-vars-in-python }

You could also create environment variables **outside** of Python, in the terminal (or with any other method), and then **read them in Python**.

For example you could have a file `main.py` with:

```Python hl_lines="3"
import os

        int result = smbRandomAccessFile.read();
        assertEquals(42, result);
        assertEquals(1, smbRandomAccessFile.getFilePointer());
    }

    @Test
    void testReadEOF() throws SmbException {
        // Mock the read operation to return EOF
        doAnswer(new Answer<Void>() {
            @Override

    }

    @Test
    @DisplayName("readn should handle multiple read calls")
    void testReadnMultipleCalls() throws IOException {
        when(mockInputStream.read(any(byte[].class), anyInt(), anyInt())).thenReturn(2) // First read returns 2 bytes
                .thenReturn(2) // Second read returns 2 bytes
                .thenReturn(1); // Third read returns 1 byte

        byte[] buffer = new byte[10];

        // Read first message
        assertEquals(1, sis.read());
        assertEquals(2, sis.read());

        // Read second message
        assertEquals(3, sis.read());
        assertEquals(4, sis.read());
        assertEquals(5, sis.read());

        // After all data is consumed, next read throws IOException
        assertThrows(IOException.class, () -> sis.read());
    }

    @Test
