Sensor DataReport Validation Test

The data report of each sensor device is expected to have specific data fields and each data field must be a specific vartype. The test prompts the tester to put the sensor device into ready state and the data report is examined to validate the presence of the required data fields and correct vartypes.

Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: Sensor Device Testing Prerequisites

You should close all apps and stop the sensor service before running this test.

If this test is being run against a GPS sensor device node, perform the following steps:

1. Confirm that you are running the tests in an environment in which you can receive a GPS signal.

2. Make sure that you have enabled the Location Permissions on the target system and for the system user account under which the WHCK tests are being executed.

Troubleshooting

For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting Device.Input Testing.

Ensure that the GPS sensor has a signal.
