xmltest - Man Page

xmltest [FILE]

xmltest is a script that is used to send a raw CIM-XML test file to the sfcb CIMOM  (using wbemcat) and then compares the returned CIM-XML results against a previously  determined 'OK' result file to check whether the returned results match the expected results. If there does not yet exist an 'OK' corresponding to the XML file then xmltest  will save the returned results as the new OK file for later use. If the returned CIM-XML results don't match the existing 'OK' file a new 'result' file will be generated containing the erroneous results.

If no FILE is specified xmltest will use all files with a .xml extension in the current directory path.

If there is no 'OK' file to compare returned CIM-XML results against xmltest will generate one.

If the returned CIM-XML results match the existing 'OK' file xmltest will signal that the test passed.

If the returned CIM-XML results don't match the existing 'OK' file xmltest will signal that the tes failed and generate a 'result' file containing the erroneous results.

Requires wbemcat on search path.

Does not adequately deal with additional http headers/footers caused by chunking responses, which will result in false failures when comparing results to existing "x.OK" files.
