Preparing for Digitizer Testing

Before running the digitizer tests, you must configure the system and install the operating system. This section summarizes the related procedures.

For a complete list of required hardware, software, and tester knowledge, see Digitizer Testing Overview.

Many of the tests in the Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK) require a test system to restart (often more than once) to complete a test run. The test description and the running instructions specify whether a test requires a system restart. Although these tests programmatically restart the test system, you must manually log on to the test system after each system restart so that the test run can resume. You can avoid this requirement by enabling autologon functionality on the test system. For more information about autologon, see How to turn on automatic logon in Windows XP.

Test System Configuration

To configure the test systems for digitizer testing, do the following:

  • Install the appropriate operating system on the test system.

  • Connect the digitizer to the test system and ensure that basic functionality is working.

  • If appropriate, enable autologon functionality.

  • Install the DTM client on the test system.

  • Ensure the gatherer, MobilePC\TabletPCDigitizer, is installed on the test system
