.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR 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:
.nf

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

      # The request to send
      OPERATION Print\-Job

.SS TOP-LEVEL DIRECTIVES
The following directives can be used outside of a \fItest\fR:
.TP 5
\fB{ \fItest \fB}\fR
Defines a test.
.TP 5
\fBDEFINE \fIvariable-name value\fR
Defines the named variable to the given value. This is equivalent to specifying \fI\-d variable-name=value\fR on the
.BR ipptool (8)
command-line.
.TP 5
\fBDEFINE\-DEFAULT \fIvariable-name value\fR
Defines the named variable to the given value if it does not already have a value.
.TP 5
\fBFILE\-ID "\fIidentifier\fB"\fR
Specifies an identifier string for the current file.
.TP 5
\fBIGNORE\-ERRORS yes\fR
.TP 5
\fBIGNORE\-ERRORS no\fR
Specifies whether, by default,
.BR ipptool (8)
will ignore errors and continue with subsequent tests.
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE "\fIfilename\fB"\fR
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE <\fIfilename\fB>\fR
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
.BR ipptool (8)
include directory.
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE\-IF\-DEFINED \fIname \fB"\fIfilename\fB"\fR
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE\-IF\-DEFINED \fIname \fB<\fIfilename\fB>\fR
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
.BR ipptool (8)
include directory.
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE\-IF\-NOT\-DEFINED \fIname \fB"\fIfilename\fB"\fR
.TP 5
\fBINCLUDE\-IF\-NOT\-DEFINED \fIname \fB<\fIfilename\fB>\fR
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
.BR ipptool (8)
include directory.
.TP 5
\fBSKIP\-IF\-DEFINED \fIvariable-name\fR
.TP 5
\fBSKIP\-IF\-NOT\-DEFINED \fIvariable-name\fR
Specifies that the remainder of the test file should be skipped when the variable is or is not defined.
.TP 5
\fBSTOP\-AFTER\-INCLUDE\-ERROR no\fR
.TP 5
\fBSTOP\-AFTER\-INCLUDE\-ERROR yes\fR
Specifies whether tests will be stopped after an error in an included file.

Specifies that tests will, by default, use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" for requests with attached files and "Content-Length:" for requests without attached files.
.TP 5
\fBTRANSFER chunked\fR
Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.1 "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header. This is the default and is equivalent to specifying \fI\-c\fR on the
.BR ipptool (8)
command-line. Support for chunked requests is required for conformance with all versions of IPP.
.TP 5
\fBTRANSFER length\fR
Specifies that tests will, by default, use the HTTP/1.0 "Content-Length:" header. This is equivalent to specifying \fI\-l\fR on the
.BR ipptool (8)

.TP 5
\fBVERSION 1.1\fR
.TP 5

Adds an attribute to the test request.
Out-of-band tags (admin-define, delete-attribute, no-value, not-settable, unknown, unsupported) have no value.
Values for other tags are delimited by the comma (",") character - escape commas using the "\\" character.
Common attributes and values are listed in the IANA IPP registry - see references below.

Multiple collection values can be supplied as needed, separated by commas.
.TP 5
\fBCOMPRESSION deflate\fR
.TP 5
\fBCOMPRESSION gzip\fR
.TP 5
\fBCOMPRESSION none\fR

.TP 5
\fBEXPECT-ALL ?\fIattribute-name predicate(s)\fR
Specifies that the response must/may include the named attribute and that all occurrences of that attribute must match the given predicates.

Specifies a file to include at the end of the request. This is typically used when sending a test print file.
.TP 5
\fBGROUP tag\fR
Specifies the group tag for subsequent attributes in the request.
.TP 5
\fBIGNORE\-ERRORS yes\fR
.TP 5
\fBIGNORE\-ERRORS no\fR

.TP 5
\fBRESOURCE \fIpath\fR
Specifies an alternate resource path that is used for the HTTP POST request. The default is the resource from the URI provided to the
.BR ipptool (8)
program.
.TP 5
\fBSKIP\-IF\-DEFINED \fIvariable-name\fR
.TP 5
\fBSKIP\-IF\-NOT\-DEFINED \fIvariable-name\fR

.BR ipptool (8)
will skip the current test if the previous test resulted in an error/failure.
