testseparator String The testseparator parameter specifies the delimiter that is used to separate tests when multiple test descriptions are included in the command. This parameter provides clarity when an individual testDescription also contains delimiters such as a comma. The GuardAPI uses the delimiter specified in the testseparator parameter to identify each test when the command is parsed.

As an example, if a test description contains a comma, and multiple tests are separated by a semicolon, specify ';' as the testseparator.

Valid values:
  • ,
  • ;
  • ^
  • ~
  • \|
  • \*

The default value is ",".

Example

grdapi add_assessment_test assessmentDescription="!DPS 2020 Q1 Testing - 2014 (MS SQL) EDS New Tests" testDescription="Description 1 SQL Server must be configurable to overwrite audit log records, oldest first, in the event of unavailability of space for more audit log records; Description 2 Another valid test description" testseparator=";"

This example adds the tests "Description 1 SQL Server must be configurable to overwrite audit log records, oldest first, in the event of unavailability of space for more audit log records" and "Description 2 Another valid test description" to the assessment "!DPS 2020 Q1 Testing - 2014 (MS SQL) EDS New Tests".
The testseparator parameter specifies that the delimiter ";" is used to separate multiple tests in the command.
