EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Description: Validates the URI properties for each object returned from Get-EvergreenApp -Name "MicrosoftOneDrive" and returns a true or false result if the URI exists or does not exist.

PARAMETERS

-InputObject

Test-EvergreenApp accepts the PSObject from Get-EvergreenApp. Test-EvergreenApp will test for the existence of at least these properties - Version and URI.

Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: True
Position: 1
Default value: None

Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-ProxyCredential

Specifies a user account that has permission to use the proxy server that is specified by the Proxy parameter. The default is the current user.

Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01\User01, User@Domain.Com, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet.

This parameter is valid only when the Proxy parameter is also used in the command. Note - this is experimental support for proxy servers and has not been extensively tested.

-NoProgress

Test-EvergreenApp uses Invoke-WebRequest to validate target application installers. Progress is suppressed by default for faster tests; however, when -Verbose is used, progress will be displayed. Use -NoProgress with -Verbose to suppress download progress while also displaying verbose output.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Accept wildcard characters: False

-UserAgent

Specifies a user agent string for the web request.

The default user agent is similar to the below with slight variations for each operating system and platform.

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Darwin 22.2.0 Darwin Kernel Version 22.2.0: Fri Nov 11 02:04:44 PST 2022; root:xnu-8792.61.2~4/RELEASE_ARM64_T8103; en-AU) AppleWebKit/534.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/7.0.500.0 Safari/534.6

To test a website with the standard user agent string that's used by most internet browsers, use the properties of the PSUserAgent class, such as Chrome, FireFox, InternetExplorer, Opera, and Safari.

For example, the following command uses the user agent string for Internet Explorer: Save-EvergreenApp -UserAgent ([Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.PSUserAgent]::InternetExplorer)
