[ -o file] True if file exists and is a valid user ID. [ -g file] True if file exists and is a valid user group. [ -l file] True if file exists and is a symbolic connection. [ -n file] If file exists  and has Been mod if IED since it is last read is true. [ -s file] True if file exists and is a socket. [File1 -nt FILE2] If FILE1 have been changed more recently than file2, or  if FILE1 exists and fILE2 Doesnot is true.
