Wcetk.txt and Clientside.exe Settings for the CETK (Windows CE 5.0)
The CETK searches for a Wcetk.txt file when you specify no command-line options for Clientside.exe. The CETK searches first for the Wcetk.txt file in the root directory and the Windows directory on the target device. If the CETK does not find a Wcetk.txt file in either of these locations, it searches for the file in the release directory on the development workstation.
The following table shows the settings that you can specify in a Wcetk.txt file. For each setting, the table also shows the equivalent command-line option for Clientside.exe and the equivalent registry entry on the target device. The registry location for these is HKLM/Software/Microsoft/CETT.
| Wcetk.txt setting | Equivalent Clientside.exe option | Equivalent target device registry entry | Description |

Autorun="1", with REG_SZ data type. | When this setting in the Wcetk.txt file is assigned a value of 1, the target device automatically starts running tests after the connection to the CETK server is established and detection of peripheral devices completes. If you specify in the Wcetk.txt file any value not equal to 1, the target device connects and peripheral devices are detected, but tests do not launch without manual input.
