The `shallow_link_path`` property returns the path that the file refers to, only resolving
it once (that is, it performs a readlink operation). If the file is not a symlink, nil is returned.

### Test parameters of symlinked file ### Test parameters of symlinked file
If you need to test the parameters of the target file for a symlink, you can use the `link_path` method for the `file` resource. If you need to test the parameters of the target file for a symlink, you can use the `link_path` (recursive resolution) or `shallow_link_path` (direct link) method for the `file` resource.
For example, for the following symlink: For example, for the following symlink:
