Serial Port Driver Test (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The Serial Port Driver Test is a build verification test for the serial port driver. The test assesses whether the driver supports configurable device parameters, such as baud rate and data bits. The test also assesses additional functionality, such as communications (COM) port events, escape functions, and timeouts. It tests regular serial port, PC Card serial, and USB function serial.
This test does not require additional hardware, such as loopback plugs, null-modem cables, or other devices. The Serial Port Driver Test does not test communications over the serial port. The test verifies that the serial port driver works properly and that the application programming interface for the driver behaves correctly.
The Serial Port Driver Test requires an actual serial port. It will fail when run against an NDIS-based Irda driver. This test is not valid for the COM IR port; the test cases automatically skip the execution for it.
