NAME
test - check file types and compare values

SYNOPSIS
test EXPRESSION
test

[ EXPRESSION ]
[ ]
[ OPTION

DESCRIPTION
Exit with the status determined by EXPRESSION.

--help display this help and exit

--version
output version information and exit

An omitted EXPRESSION defaults to false. Otherwise, EXPRESSION is true
or false and sets exit status. It is one of:

( EXPRESSION )
EXPRESSION is true

! EXPRESSION
EXPRESSION is false

EXPRESSION1 -a EXPRESSION2
both EXPRESSION1 and EXPRESSION2 are true

EXPRESSION1 -o EXPRESSION2
either EXPRESSION1 or EXPRESSION2 is true

-n STRING
the length of STRING is nonzero

STRING equivalent to -n STRING

-z STRING
the length of STRING is zero

STRING1 = STRING2
the strings are equal

STRING1 != STRING2
the strings are not equal

INTEGER1 -eq INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is equal to INTEGER2

INTEGER1 -ge INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is greater than or equal to INTEGER2

INTEGER1 -gt INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is greater than INTEGER2

INTEGER1 -le INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is less than or equal to INTEGER2

INTEGER1 -lt INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is less than INTEGER2

INTEGER1 -ne INTEGER2
INTEGER1 is not equal to INTEGER2

FILE1 -ef FILE2
FILE1 and FILE2 have the same device and inode numbers

FILE1 -nt FILE2
FILE1 is newer (modification date) than FILE2

FILE1 -ot FILE2
FILE1 is older than FILE2

-b FILE
FILE exists and is block special

-c FILE
FILE exists and is character special

-d FILE
FILE exists and is a directory

-e FILE
FILE exists

-f FILE
FILE exists and is a regular file

-g FILE
FILE exists and is set-group-ID

-G FILE
FILE exists and is owned by the effective group ID

-h FILE
FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -L)

-k FILE
FILE exists and has its sticky bit set

-L FILE
FILE exists and is a symbolic link (same as -h)

-O FILE
FILE exists and is owned by the effective user ID

-p FILE
FILE exists and is a named pipe

-r FILE
FILE exists and read permission is granted

-s FILE
FILE exists and has a size greater than zero

-S FILE
FILE exists and is a socket

-t FD file descriptor FD is opened on a terminal

-u FILE
FILE exists and its set-user-ID bit is set

-w FILE
FILE exists and write permission is granted

-x FILE
FILE exists and execute (or search) permission is granted

Except for -h and -L, all FILE-related tests dereference symbolic
links. Beware that parentheses need to be escaped (e.g., by back-
slashes) for shells. INTEGER may also be -l STRING, which evaluates to
the length of STRING.

NOTE: [ honors the --help and --version options, but test does not.
test treats each of those as it treats any other nonempty STRING.

NOTE: your shell may have its own version of test and/or [, which usu-
ally supersedes the version described here. Please refer to your
shell's documentation for details about the options it supports.
