Generic USB Game Controller Test
This test verifies that an input gaming device driver is HID-compliant by ensuring that the driver supports the required functionality for Direct Input.
Warning
Although much of this test is performed automatically, some manual input at the beginning of the test must verify axis functionality. This test relies on the Microsoft® DirectInput™ API to ensure that the device being testing is functioning as expected.
