The real question is why did I use ret and err at all? ;)
This test is based on existing tests, thus it got copy&pasted.
I'll think about merging these two variables.
Thank for pointing this out.

This is by design. I don't want to print an error message if the test is aborted.
mtdtest_relax() checks for that.
