NAME

ipptoolfile - ipptool file format  

DESCRIPTION

The ipptool(1) 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 curly braces, for example:

    # This is a comment
    {
      # The name of the test
      NAME "Print PostScript File"

      # The request to send
      OPERATION Print-Job
      GROUP operation-attributes-tag
      ATTR charset attributes-charset utf-8
      ATTR language attributes-natural-language en
      ATTR uri printer-uri $uri
      ATTR name requesting-user-name $user
      FILE testfile.ps

      # The response to expect
      STATUS successful-ok
      EXPECT job-id OF-TYPE integer WITH-VALUE >0
      EXPECT job-uri OF-TYPE uri
    }
    {
      # The name of the test
      NAME "Get Attributes of PostScript Job"

      # The request to send
      OPERATION Get-Job-Attributes
      GROUP operation-attributes-tag
      ATTR charset attributes-charset utf-8
      ATTR language attributes-natural-language en
      ATTR uri printer-uri $uri
      ATTR integer job-id $job-id
      ATTR name requesting-user-name $user

      # The response to expect
      STATUS successful-ok
      EXPECT job-id OF-TYPE integer WITH-VALUE $job-id
      EXPECT job-uri OF-TYPE uri
      EXPECT job-state OF-TYPE enum WITH-VALUE 3,4,5,6,7,8,9
      EXPECT job-originating-user-name OF-TYPE name WITH-VALUE "$user"
    }
 

TOP-LEVEL DIRECTIVES

The following directives can be used outside of a test:
{ test }
Defines a test.
DEFINE variable-name value
Defines the named variable to the given value. This is equivalent to specifying -d variable-name=value on the ipptool(8) command-line.
DEFINE-DEFAULT variable-name value
Defines the named variable to the given value if it does not already have a value.
FILE-ID "identifier"
Specifies an identifier string for the current file.
IGNORE-ERRORS yes
IGNORE-ERRORS no
Specifies whether, by default, ipptool(8) will ignore errors and continue with subsequent tests.
INCLUDE "filename"
INCLUDE <filename>
Includes another test file. The first form includes a file relative to the current test file, while the second form includes a file from the ipptool(8) include directory.
INCLUDE-IF-DEFINED name "filename"
INCLUDE-IF-DEFINED name <filename>
Includes another test file if the named variable is defined. The first form includes a file relative to the current test file, while the second form includes a file from the ipptool(8) include directory.
INCLUDE-IF-NOT-DEFINED name "filename"
INCLUDE-IF-NOT-DEFINED name <filename>
Includes another test file if the named variable is not defined. The first form includes a file relative to the current test file, while the second form includes a file from the ipptool(8) include directory.
SKIP-IF-DEFINED variable-name
SKIP-IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
Specifies that the remainder of the test file should be skipped when the variable is or is not defined.
STOP-AFTER-INCLUDE-ERROR no
STOP-AFTER-INCLUDE-ERROR yes
Specifies whether tests will be stopped after an error in an included file.
TRANSFER auto
Specifies that tests will, by default, use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" for requests with attached files and "Content-Length:" for requests without attached files.
TRANSFER chunked
Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.1 "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header. This is the default and is equivalent to specifying -c on the ipptool(8) command-line. Support for chunked requests is required for conformance with all versions of IPP.
TRANSFER length
Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.0 "Content-Length:" header. This is equivalent to specifying -l on the ipptool(8) command-line. Support for content length requests is required for conformance with all versions of IPP.
VERSION 1.0
VERSION 1.1
VERSION 2.0
VERSION 2.1
VERSION 2.2
Specifies the default IPP version number to use for the tests that follow.
 

TEST DIRECTIVES

The following directives are understood within a test:
ATTR tag attribute-name value(s)
Adds an attribute to the test request. Values are separated by the comma (",") character - escape commas using the "
ATTR collection attribute-name { MEMBER tag member-name value(s) ... } [ ... ,{ ... } ]
Adds a collection attribute to the test request. Member attributes follow the same syntax as regular attributes and can themselves be nested collections. Multiple collection values can be supplied as needed, separated by commas.
COMPRESSION deflate
COMPRESSION gzip
COMPRESSION none
Uses the specified compression on the document data following the attributes in a Print-Job or Send-Document request.
DELAY seconds
Specifies a delay before this test will be run.
DISPLAY attribute-name
Specifies that value of the named attribute should be output as part of the test report.
EXPECT attribute-name [ predicate(s) ]
EXPECT ?attribute-name predicate(s)
EXPECT !attribute-name
Specifies that the response must/may/must not include the named attribute. Additional requirements can be added as predicates - see the "EXPECT PREDICATES" section for more information on predicates. Attribute names can specify member attributes by separating the attribute and member names with the forward slash, for example "media-col/media-size/x-dimension".
EXPECT-ALL attribute-name [ predicate(s) ]
EXPECT-ALL ?attribute-name predicate(s)
Specifies that the response must/may include the named attribute and that all occurrences of that attribute must match the given predicates.
FILE filename
Specifies a file to include at the end of the request. This is typically used when sending a test print file.
GROUP tag
Specifies the group tag for subsequent attributes in the request.
IGNORE-ERRORS yes
IGNORE-ERRORS no
Specifies whether ipptool(8) will ignore errors and continue with subsequent tests.
NAME "literal string"
Specifies the human-readable name of the test.
OPERATION operation-code
Specifies the operation to be performed.
PAUSE "message"
Displays the provided message and waits for the user to press a key to continue.
REQUEST-ID number
REQUEST-ID random
Specifies the request-id value to use in the request, either an integer or the word "random" to use a randomly generated value (the default).
RESOURCE path
Specifies an alternate resource path that is used for the HTTP POST request. The default is the resource from the URI provided to the ipptool(8) program.
SKIP-IF-DEFINED variable-name
SKIP-IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
Specifies that the current test should be skipped when the variable is or is not defined.
SKIP-PREVIOUS-ERROR yes
SKIP-PREVIOUS-ERROR no
Specifies whether ipptool(8) will skip the current test if the previous test resulted in an error/failure.
STATUS status-code [ predicate ]
Specifies an expected response status-code value. Additional requirements can be added as predicates - see the "STATUS PREDICATES" section for more information on predicates.
TEST-ID "identifier"
Specifies an identifier string for the current test.
TRANSFER auto
Specifies that this test will use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" if it has an attached file or "Content-Length:" otherwise.
TRANSFER chunked
Specifies that this test will use the HTTP/1.1 "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header.
TRANSFER length
Specifies that this test will use the HTTP/1.0 "Content-Length:" header.
VERSION 1.0
VERSION 1.1
VERSION 2.0
VERSION 2.1
VERSION 2.2
Specifies the IPP version number to use for this test.
 

EXPECT PREDICATES

The following predicates are understood following the EXPECT test directive:
COUNT number
Requires the EXPECT attribute to have the specified number of values.

Defines the variable to "1" when the EXPECT condition does not match. A side-effect of this predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.
DEFINE-VALUE variable-name
Defines the variable to the value of the attribute when the EXPECT condition matches. A side-effect of this predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.
IF-DEFINED variable-name
Makes the EXPECT conditions apply only if the specified variable is defined.
IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
Makes the EXPECT conditions apply only if the specified variable is not defined.
IN-GROUP tag
Requires the EXPECT attribute to be in the specified group tag.
OF-TYPE tag[,tag,...]

REPEAT-MATCH
REPEAT-NO-MATCH
Specifies that the current test should be repeated when the EXPECT condition matches or does not match.
SAME-COUNT-AS attribute-name
Requires the EXPECT attribute to have the same number of values as the specified parallel attribute.

WITH-ALL-VALUES "false"
WITH-ALL-VALUES "true"
Requires that all values of the EXPECT attribute match the boolean value given.
WITH-ALL-VALUES "/regular expression/"
