Instead of doing puts, you should use the setResult() method.
e.g.
interp.setResult( "Result of the command" );
The Jacl interpreter will then write the string to the console.
You can also save the output of the command like this:
set ret [my_custom_cmd arg1 arg2]
if { $ret == "expected result" } {
puts "test passed"
} else {
puts "test failed"
}
