Power Manager Timeouts Test (Compact 7)
3/12/2014
The Power Manager Timeouts Test verifies the timeout values that are used to define the time which the system is expected to wait before transitioning into a lower power state. This test targets both the power state timeouts for the DEFAULT and PDA versions of the power manager.
Test Prerequisites
Your device must meet the following requirements before you run this test.
The following prerequisites are required for this test.
Hardware Prerequisites:
In order to run the test, the platform and/or device drivers should have power management capabilities.
Software Prerequisites:
Having the SYSGEN_PM sysgen variable set when building your OS image will include the Power Manager.
The following table shows the software requirements for this test.
Requirement | Description |
---|---|
Tux.exe |
Tux test harness that executes the test. |
Kato.dll |
Logging engine that logs test data. |
testutildrv.dll |
Utility driver to handle setting RTC wake source for suspend/resume |
pwrdrvr.dll |
Sample power managed device driver used during test |
pwrtimeouts.dll |
Test library. |
Subtests
The table below lists the subtests included in this test.
SubTest ID | Description |
---|---|
11 |

Setting Up the Test
This test has no additional requirements, beyond the standard test environment setup.
Running the Test
The Power Manager Timeout Test executes the tux -o -d pwrtimeouts command line on default execution.
This test library can have one or more optional command line entries to change the behavior of the test. To specify one or more command line entries to the test library, you must use the -c command-line option. This option forces Tux to pass the specified string into the test library.
The following table shows the optional command line parameters for this test.
Command Line Parameter | Description |
---|---|
AllowSuspend |
Allows the tests to suspend the system. |
PdaVersion |
Informs the tests that this is a PDA-type device which tests a separate set of system power states. |
Profile |
Allows the tester to specify a profile for the external storage test case. Default is "SDMemory". |
Verifying the Test
When the test completes running, verify that "PASS" appears in the test log for all sub-tests.
Troubleshooting the Test
* The platform must have power management capabilities.
* The platform must support the standard power states used in this test which target the DEFAULT and PDA versions of the Power Manager.
* The platform must have the timeout values set for this test to take effect.
