"""
Description:
    Spawn an actionlib action server, then create a state machine that sends
    some goals to the action server that will automatically succeed or abort.
    We expect the first goal to succeed, and the second goal to abort, so
    when the second goal aborts, we map that onto success of the state
    machine.

Usage:
    $> ./actionlib.py

Output:
    [INFO] : State machine starting in initial state 'GOAL_DEFAULT' with userdata: 
        []
    [WARN] : Still waiting for action server 'test_action' to start... is it running?
    [INFO] : State machine transitioning 'GOAL_DEFAULT':'succeeded'-->'GOAL_STATIC'
    [INFO] : State machine terminating 'GOAL_STATIC':'aborted':'succeeded'
