Shell Script Parser

How do I parse out the fatal error and accumulate to total errors if I have a string like below. So the total errors will be 5.

"TEST 1: 3 Fatal Errors TEST 2: 2 Fatal Errors TEST 3: 0 Fatal Errors"

Thanks in advance.

What have you tried? You could parse that line with awk, bash or one of several languages.

If the format is always the same, awk sound perfect to me.
