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.

       DEFINE-MATCH variable-name
            Defines the variable to "1" when the EXPECT condition matches. A side-effect of  this
            predicate is that this EXPECT will never fail a test.

       DEFINE-NO-MATCH variable-name
            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,...]
            Requires the EXPECT attribute to use one of the specified value tag(s).

       REPEAT-LIMIT number
            Specifies  the  maximum  number  of times to repeat if the REPEAT-MATCH or REPEAT-NO-
            MATCH predicate is specified. The default value is 1000.

       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-HOSTNAMES "literal string"

       WITH-ALL-HOSTNAMES "/regular expression/"
            Requires that all URI values contain a matching hostname.

       WITH-ALL-RESOURCES "literal string"

       WITH-ALL-RESOURCES "/regular expression/"
            Requires that all URI values contain a matching resource (including leading /).

       WITH-ALL-SCHEMES "literal string"

       WITH-ALL-SCHEMES "/regular expression/"
            Requires that all URI values contain a matching scheme.

       WITH-ALL-VALUES "literal string"
            Requires  that  all  values  of  the  EXPECT  attribute  match  the  literal  string.
            Comparisons are case-sensitive.

       WITH-ALL-VALUES <number

       WITH-ALL-VALUES =number

       WITH-ALL-VALUES >number

       WITH-ALL-VALUES number[,...,number]
            Requires  that  all  values  of  the  EXPECT attribute match the number(s) or numeric
            comparison. When comparing rangeOfInteger values, the  "<"  and  ">"  operators  only
            check the upper bound of the range.

       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/"
            Requires  that all values of the EXPECT attribute match the regular expression, which
            must conform to the POSIX regular expression syntax. Comparisons are case-sensitive.

            Requires that at least one URI value contains a matching scheme.

       WITH-VALUE "literal string"
            Requires  that at least one value of the EXPECT attribute matches the literal string.
            Comparisons are case-sensitive.

       WITH-VALUE <number

       WITH-VALUE =number

       WITH-VALUE >number

       WITH-VALUE number[,...,number]
            Requires that at least one value of the EXPECT attribute  matches  the  number(s)  or
            numeric  comparison.  When comparing rangeOfInteger values, the "<" and ">" operators
            only check the upper bound of the range.

       WITH-VALUE "false"

       WITH-VALUE "true"
            Requires that at least one value of the EXPECT attribute matches  the  boolean  value
            given.

       WITH-VALUE "/regular expression/"
            Requires  that  at  least  one  value  of  the  EXPECT  attribute matches the regular
            expression, which must conform to the POSIX regular  expression  syntax.  Comparisons
            are case-sensitive.

       WITH-VALUE-FROM attribute-name
            Requires  that  the  value(s)  of  the  EXPECT  attribute matches the value(s) in the
            specified   attribute.    For    example,    "EXPECT    job-sheets    WITH-VALUE-FROM
            job-sheets-supported"  requires  that  the "job-sheets" value is listed as a value of
            the "job-sheets-supported" attribute.

   STATUS PREDICATES
       The following predicates are understood following the STATUS test directive:

       DEFINE-MATCH variable-name
            Defines the variable to "1" when the STATUS matches. A side-effect of this  predicate
            is that this STATUS will never fail a test.

       DEFINE-NO-MATCH variable-name
            Defines  the  variable  to  "1" when the STATUS does not match. A side-effect of this
            predicate is that this STATUS will never fail a test.

       IF-DEFINED variable-name
            Makes the STATUS apply only if the specified variable is defined.

       IF-NOT-DEFINED variable-name
            Makes the STATUS apply only if the specified variable is not defined.

       REPEAT-LIMIT number
            Specifies the maximum number of times to repeat. The default value is 1000.

       REPEAT-MATCH

       REPEAT-NO-MATCH
            Specifies that the current test should be  repeated  when  the  response  status-code
            matches or does not match the value specified by the STATUS directive.
