Test-ScriptFile

SYNOPSIS

Test a PowerShell script for cmdlets

SYNTAX

Test-ScriptFile [-Path] <String> [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

This command will analyze a PowerShell script file and display a list of detected commands such as PowerShell cmdlets and functions. Commands will be compared to what is installed locally. It is recommended you run this on a Windows 8.1 client with the latest version of RSAT installed. Unknown commands could also be internally defined functions. If in doubt view the contents of the script file in the PowerShell ISE or a script editor. You can test any .ps1, .psm1 or .txt file.
