test-json: Test if a string JSON format.
$ Test-Json -Json '${json_to_test}'
try on your machine

The command "Test-Json" is a PowerShell command used to test the validity of a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) string.

In this specific command, "-Json" is a parameter that specifies the JSON string to be tested. The JSON string is denoted by '${json_to_test}', which is a placeholder that suggests you need to replace it with the actual JSON string you want to test.

Once you replace '${json_to_test}' with your JSON string, running this command will check if the provided JSON is valid. If the JSON is valid, the command is likely to return a success or true response. If the JSON is invalid, the command may return an error or false response, indicating that the JSON has some syntax errors or inconsistencies.
