  18 .SH DESCRIPTION
  19 The \fIipptool(1)\fR program accepts free-form plain text files that describe one or more IPP requests. Comments start with the "#" character and continue to the end of the line. Each request is enclosed by curley braces, for example:
  20 .nf
  21
  22     # This is a comment
  23     {
  24       # The name of the test
  25       NAME "Print PostScript Job"

  67 .SH TOP-LEVEL DIRECTIVES
  68 The following directives can be used outside of a test:
  69 .TP 5
  70 { test }
  71 Defines a test.
  72 .TP 5
  73 DEFINE variable-name value
  74 Defines the named variable to the given value. This is equivalent to specifying
  75 "-d variable-name=value" on the \fIipptool\fR command-line.
  76 .TP 5
  77 DEFINE-DEFAULT variable-name value
  78 Defines the named variable to the given value if it does not already have a
  79 value.
  80 .TP 5
  81 IGNORE-ERRORS yes
  82 .TP 5
  83 IGNORE-ERRORS no
  84 Specifies whether, by default, \fIipptool\fR will ignore errors and continue with
  85 subsequent tests.
  86 .TP 5
  87 INCLUDE "filename"
  88 .TP 5
  89 INCLUDE <filename>
  90 Includes another test file. The first form includes a file relative to the
  91 current test file, while the second form includes a file from the \fIipptool\fR
  92 include directory.
  93 .TP 5
  94 INCLUDE-IF-DEFINED name "filename"
  95 .TP 5
  96 INCLUDE-IF-DEFINED name <filename>
  97 Includes another test file if the named variable is defined. The first form
  98 includes a file relative to the current test file, while the second form
  99 includes a file from the \fIipptool\fR include directory.
 100 .TP 5
 101 INCLUDE-IF-NOT-DEFINED name "filename"
 102 .TP 5
 103 INCLUDE-IF-NOT-DEFINED name <filename>
 104 Includes another test file if the named variable is not defined. The first form
 105 includes a file relative to the current test file, while the second form
 106 includes a file from the \fIipptool\fR include directory.
 107 .TP 5
 108 SKIP-IF-DEFINED variable-name
 109 .TP 5
 110 SKIP-IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
 111 Specifies that the remainder of the test file should be skipped when the
 112 variable is or is not defined.
 113 .TP 5
 114 TRANSFER auto
 115 Specifies that tests will, by default, use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" for
 116 requests with attached files and "Content-Length:" for requests without attached
 117 files.
 118 .TP 5
 119 TRANSFER chunked
 120 Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.1 "Transfer-Encoding:
 121 chunked" header. This is the default and is equivalent to specifying "-c" on the
 122 \fIipptool\fR command-line. Support for chunked requests is required for
 123 conformance with all versions of IPP.
 124 .TP 5
 125 TRANSFER length
 126 Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.0 "Content-Length:"
 127 header. This is equivalent to specifying "-l" on the \fIipptool\fR command-line.
 128 Support for content length requests is required for conformance with all
 129 versions of IPP.

 131 VERSION 1.0
 132 .TP 5
 133 VERSION 1.1
 134 .TP 5

 142 .SH TEST DIRECTIVES
 143 The following directives are understood in a test:
 144 .TP 5

 146 Adds an attribute to the test request. Values are separated by the comma (",")
 147 character - escape commas using the "\" character.
 148 .TP 5
 149 ATTR collection attribute-name { MEMBER tag member-name value(s) ... } [ ... { ... } ]
 150 Adds a collection attribute to the test request. Member attributes follow the
 151 same syntax as regular attributes and can themselves be nested collections.
 152 Multiple collection values can be supplied as needed.
 153 .TP 5
 154 DELAY seconds
 155 Specifies a delay before this test will be run.
 156 .TP 5
 157 DISPLAY attribute-name
 158 Specifies that value of the named attribute should be output as part of the
 159 test report.

 168 section for more information on predicates.
 169 .TP 5
 170 FILE filename
 171 Specifies a file to include at the end of the request. This is typically used

 184 Specifies the human-readable name of the test.
 185 .TP 5
 186 OPERATION operation-code
 187 Specifies the operation to be performed.
 188 .TP 5
 189 REQUEST-ID number
 190 .TP 5
 191 REQUEST-ID random
 192 Specifies the request-id value to use in the request, either an integer or the
 193 word "random" to use a randomly generated value (the default).
 194 .TP 5
 195 RESOURCE path
 196 Specifies an alternate resource path that is used for the HTTP POST request.
 197 The default is the resource from the URI provided to the \fIipptool\fR program.
 198 .TP 5
 199 SKIP-IF-DEFINED variable-name
 200 .TP 5
 201 SKIP-IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
 202 Specifies that the current test should be skipped when the variable is or is not
 203 defined.
 204 .TP 5
 205 SKIP-PREVIOUS-ERROR yes
 206 .TP 5
 207 SKIP-PREVIOUS-ERROR no
 208 Specifies whether \fIipptool\fR will skip the current test if the previous test
 209 resulted in an error/failure.
 210 .TP 5
 211 STATUS status-code [ predicate ]
 212 Specifies an expected response status-code value. Additional requirements can be
 213 added as predicates - see the "STATUS PREDICATES" section for more information
 214 on predicates.
 215 .TP 5
 216 TRANSFER auto
 217 Specifies that this test will use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" if it has an
 218 attached file or "Content-Length:" otherwise.
 219 .TP 5
 220 TRANSFER chunked
 221 Specifies that this test will use the HTTP/1.1 "Transfer-Encoding: chunked"
 222 header.
 223 .TP 5
 224 TRANSFER length

 238 .SH EXPECT PREDICATES
 239 The following predicates are understood following the EXPECT test directive:
 240 .TP 5
 241 COUNT number
 242 Requires the EXPECT attribute to have the specified number of values.
 243 .TP 5
 244 DEFINE-MATCH variable-name
 245 Defines the variable to "1" when the EXPECT condition matches. A side-effect of
 246 this predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.
 247 .TP 5
 248 DEFINE-NO-MATCH variable-name
 249 Defines the variable to "1" when the EXPECT condition does not match. A side-
 250 effect of this predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.
 251 .TP 5
 252 DEFINE-VALUE variable-name
 253 Defines the variable to the value of the attribute when the EXPECT condition
 254 matches. A side-effect of this predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.
 255 .TP 5
 256 IF-DEFINED variable-name
 257 Makes the EXPECT conditions apply only if the specified variable is defined.
 258 .TP 5
 259 IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
 260 Makes the EXPECT conditions apply only if the specified variable is not
 261 defined.
 262 .TP 5
 263 IN-GROUP tag
 264 Requires the EXPECT attribute to be in the specified group tag.
 265 .TP 5
 266 OF-TYPE tag[,tag,...]
 267 Requires the EXPECT attribute to use the specified value tag(s).
 268 .TP 5
 269 REPEAT-MATCH
 270 .TP 5
 271 REPEAT-NO-MATCH
 272 Specifies that the current test should be repeated when the EXPECT condition
 273 matches or does not match.
 274 .TP 5
 275 SAME-COUNT-AS attribute-name
 276 Requires the EXPECT attribute to have the same number of values as the specified
 277 parallel attribute.
 278 .TP 5
 279 WITH-VALUE "literal string"
 280 Requires at least one value of the EXPECT attribute to match the literal string.
 281 Comparisons are case-sensitive.
 282 .TP 5
 283 WITH-VALUE "/regular expression/"
 284 Requires that all values of the EXPECT attribute match the regular expression,
 285 which must conform to the POSIX regular expression syntax.
 286 Comparisons are case-sensitive.
 287
 288 .SH STATUS PREDICATES
 289 The following predicates are understood following the STATUS test directive:
 290 .TP 5
 291 IF-DEFINED variable-name
 292 Makes the STATUS apply only if the specified variable is defined.
 293 .TP 5
 294 IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
 295 Makes the STATUS apply only if the specified variable is not defined.
 296 .TP 5
 297 REPEAT-MATCH
 298 .TP 5
 299 REPEAT-NO-MATCH
 300 Specifies that the current test should be repeated when the response status-code
 301 matches or does not match the value specified by the STATUS directive.
