Script Syntax

You create a script using keywords. In general the Script Syntax is Command=String. Command is either Send, Expect, SimpleExpect, or Flow Control.

Note: A script can have as many send and receive lines as needed. However, the more you have, the slower the service checking.

Keywords

To send a string to a port, use the Send= keyword.
To expect a string from a port, use the SimpleExpect= or the Expect= keyword.
To comment out a line, use the # symbol as the first character of the line.
To have conditional responses on "error" or "success" of a step within the scripts, use Flow Control Keywords.

Examples

If you have a TCP service to check where you needed to do the following:

expect something on connection
send a command
check for a response
send something to disconnect
