Hi Alin,

"on_exit" will queue up a command to be run at the end of the test
run, regardless of success or failure. As such, I think that this
should be run immediately after the launch of ovs-testcontroller.
Otherwise it's possible that something else in the test fails before
the end, and ovs-testcontroller is not cleaned up.
