Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: Windows Touch Testing Prerequisites.

A high packet rate helps ensure smooth, fluid motion, and it supports the feeling that the user interface (UI) is connected to the user's finger. The input rate data and increased data throughput improves gesture recognition.

This test includes four separate reporting rate scenarios that are distinguished by single and multiple contacts and stationary contact versus motion. In each scenario, the test validates that the minimum reporting rate is maintained for each contact (and specifically not just the average reporting rate).

This test also verifies that HID reports conform to the HID protocol that is described in Windows Pointer Device Data Delivery Protocol and defined in the HID I2C v1.0 Protocol Specification.
