<h3 id="OUTPUT-OPTIONS">OUTPUT OPTIONS</h3>
<p><code>--warnings &lt;batch|off></code> The warnings parameter determines how testssl.sh will deal with situations where user input will normally be necessary. There are a couple of options here. <code>batch</code> doesn't wait for a confirming keypress. This is automatically being chosen for mass testing (<code>--file</code>). <code>-false</code> just skips the warning AND the confirmation. Please note that there are conflicts where testssl.sh will still ask for confirmation. Those are ones which would have a drastic impact on the results.

Please note that there are conflicts where testssl.sh will still ask for confirmation which are the ones which otherwise would have a drastic impact on the results. Almost any other decision will be made as a best guess by testssl.sh.
The same can be achieved by setting the environment variable <code>WARNINGS</code>.</p>
<p><code>--openssl-timeout &lt;seconds></code> This is especially useful for all connects using openssl and practically useful for mass testing. It avoids the openssl connect to hang for ~2 minutes. The expected parameter <code>seconds</code> instructs testssl.sh to wait before the openssl connect will be terminated. The option is only available if your OS has a timeout binary installed. As there are different implementations of <code>timeout</code>: It automatically calls the binary with the right parameters.</p>
