Cross-Category API Functions And Script Commands

The KcsAvailable(), KcsCreateProfile(), KcsFreeProfile(), KcsModifyLoadHints(), KcsSaveProfile(), and KcsSetCallback() functions in the KCMS framework API are not addressed directly as a testing category in a single script. Each of these functions is exercised in the course of performing normal testing.

• KcsCreateProfile() (CREATE: command) is called to generate an empty profile that can be used by subsequent script commands such as GETATTR:, SETATTR:, and UPDATE:.

• KcsFreeProfile() (FREE: command) is called in each test script where a profile is loaded, connected, or created. This is the expectation of the KCMS framework.

• KcsModifyLoadHints()(MODIFYLH: command) typically is called to load the rest of a profile previously loaded for attributes only. It is called in the IC_lhints.scr script.

• KcsSaveProfile() (SAVE: command) is performed and tested in several of the script categories listed in Table 4-2.

• KcsSetCallback() is called in the EVAL:, UPDATE:, and OPTIMIZE: script commands whose operation is expected to take an extended period of time.

In addition, the LOG: command is not associated with a particular KCMS API function. Instead it serves to show comment data in the test scripts.
