just follow the Corona688's suggestion with the paramName=paramValue format and 'sourcing' the config file - that's a better and an easier maintained paradigm.

slaptest
SLAPTEST(8C) SLAPTEST(8C)
NAME
slaptest - Check the suitability of the OpenLDAP slapd.conf file
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/slaptest [-d debug-level] [-f slapd.conf] [-F confdir] [-ndbnum] [-o option[=value]] [-Q] [-u] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
Slaptest is used to check the conformance of the slapd.conf(5) configuration file. It opens the slapd.conf(5) configuration file or the
slapd-config(5) backend, and parses it according to the general and the backend-specific rules, checking its sanity.
OPTIONS
-d debug-level
enable debugging messages as defined by the specified debug-level; see slapd(8) for details.
-f slapd.conf
specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.
-F confdir
specify a config directory. If both -f and -F are specified, the config file will be read and converted to config directory format
and written to the specified directory. If neither option is specified, slaptest will attempt to read the default config directory
before trying to use the default config file. If a valid config directory exists then the default config file is ignored. If dry-run
mode is also specified, no conversion will occur.
-n dbnum
Just open and test the dbnum-th database listed in the configuration file. To only test the config database slapd-config(5), use -n
0 as it is always the first database.
-o option[=value]
Specify an option with a(n optional) value. Possible generic options/values are:
syslog=<subsystems> (see `-s' in slapd(8))
syslog-level=<level> (see `-S' in slapd(8))
syslog-user=<user> (see `-l' in slapd(8))
-Q Be extremely quiet: only the exit code indicates success(0) or not (any other value).
-u enable dry-run mode (i.e. don't fail if databases cannot be opened, but config is fine).
-v enable verbose mode.
EXAMPLES
To check a slapd.conf(5) give the command:
/usr/sbin/slaptest -f //etc/openldap/slapd.conf -v
