File System Driver Test

The File System Driver Test is designed to uncover problems with a file system driver (FSD) that uses the Microsoft® Win32® application programming interface (API). You can use this test to find problems with a storage device block driver that runs under the file allocation table (FAT) FSD. You can also test a custom FSD.

The following table shows the hardware requirements for the File System Driver Test.

Requirements Description
Storage device A storage device that is supported by the FSD and storage device block driver; for example a PC Card, Compact Flash device, or hard disk.

The following table shows the software requirements for the File System Driver Test.

Requirements Description
Tux.exe Tux Test Harness, which is required for executing the test.
Kato.dll Kato logging engine, which is required for logging test data.
Tooltalk.dll Application required by Tux.exe and Kato.dll. Handles the transport between the target device and the development workstation.
Fsdtst.dll Test .dll file.

Note   When you run the File System Driver Test, the CETK temporarily copies files to the root directory of the target device. Before running the test, verify that there is at least 0.5 megabytes (MB) of free space in the root directory of the target device. If there is not sufficient space in the root directory of the target device, the test cannot run.
