# 9.3 Port Tools

The `ports-mgmt/porttools` program is part of the Ports Collection.

`port` is the front-end script, which can help you simplify the testing job. Whenever you want to test a new port or update an existing one, you can use `port test` to test your port, including the `portlint` checking. This command also detects and lists any files that are not listed in `pkg-plist`. See the following example:

    # port test /usr/ports/net/csup
